PURPOSE: A stop lamp failure displaying device is provided to easily check a broken stop lamp through a cluster by turning on a failure warning lamp of the cluster and then the correspondent lamp warning light thereof in pressing a brake pedal. CONSTITUTION: A stop lamp failure displaying device is composed of individual lamp warning lights(44a,44b,44c) arranged on a cluster(40) to indicate a failure for each stop lamp(32,34,36); a failure detecting circuit(50) for detecting the failure of each stop lamp by comparing a voltage signal output from the stop lamps and a voltage signal applied by a stop lamp switch(24), and then outputting a correspondent signal; and a warning light operating unit(60) for operating selectively the individual lamp warning lights by receiving the signal output from the failure detecting circuit.
