Miles 331 1 Cars Posted May 13, 2007 check the brake pedal switch and the wires are connected as they can fall off, It's easy to see with the glove box part off under the steering coloum Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mikey S 29 1 Cars Posted May 13, 2007 as miles says they sometimes fall off. if it hasnt, bridge the terminals on the connector together with ign on. this will bring the stop lights on indicating that the switch is dead. if it doesnt look at the bulbs and check that you have a supply to the brakelights themselves. thats what i was told will have a look later when the football is cleared and i can bring the car home ( only parking on one side when its on :@ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
paul_portsmouth 3 Posted May 14, 2007 the switch was loose and wound itself in too far so wasnt switching when the pedal was pressed :S Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
paul_portsmouth 3 Posted May 16, 2007 turns out it wasnt the switch at all one of the connectors had a dodgy connection all fixed now though Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
