Brake Lights wont turn on when pedal is pressed....

[deeman88]

hey guys, another quick one.

my brake lights don't turn on when I press the pedal, and i have a suspicion its the switch behind the pedal (i think)... is there a guide to replacing this?

more than likely the switch yes, had it go on mine a few months back. I dont think there is much involved its just tricky to get to as its tucked up above the pedals.

Thanks for the heads up, shall try tackle it tomorrow... i hope

its easy i done mine in 10 mins outside eurocarparts because my first one failed within a year and was exchanged under warranty google brake light switch there's a how to for the seat leon but it's exactly the same

[deeman88]

Is it not like the golfs? Just a wee half turn and then it's loose?
