I just found out my brake lights are malfunctioning. All three lights wont go
on until I push hard on the brakes. The guys who changed my oil think its an
electrical short since all three back lights are not working. Could it be the
Brake Light Switch or a full blown short? I'd also like to mention the fact
that the lights on the radio don't work but the lights on my computer council
and heat/air do. Can anyone help solve this dilema? Any help is greatly
appreciated.

Sounds like the brake light activation switch to me - either needs adjusting
or replacement (I beleive it is near the pedal).  Not sure why they'd think
it was a short (of course it was an oil change dude ;-)

probably figure it out.

This site has a service where he will fix it for you (I've never used it
though and some people don't like this guy):
