My brakes lights as well as the turn signals and reverse lights work but the orange brake light in the dash still comes on. to make it even more wierd, this only happens when it rains or after it rains. On sunny days, i dont get the orange light. I'm thinking maybe something gets wet and it throws the switch for the light to come on. what could this be?

this happened to me too, water gets into the tail lights, you have to let it dry or dry it yourself. it shorts out the lights or something.

I get that as well...but all of my contacts are good and dry, so i was thinking maybe it's the third brake light in the spoiler...

You need, believe it or not, tail light gaskets and possibly a tail light sensor module.
Check the IPC on the site, they make tail light gaskets and every Supra i have seen they are rotten, including mine.

does any of your brake lights look warped? like the covers looked like thier warped? or has the gasket shrunk?

first thing i would do is replace the cursed yellow box! The lamp failure sensor or whatever its called. If you have a buddy with a mk3 that doesnt have the orange light problem, see if you can test his cursed yellow box on your car.

It is in fact the cursed yellow box. Find one in a juk yard and coat it in epoxy so it won't get wet.

i've noticed that after it rains, the left rear turn signal has some condensation on it. water may be getting it there. sounds like i'll have to replace the gasket. where is the cursed yellow box that you guys speak of?

It's behind the driver's side taillight cover.
