Re: Brake Lights Always On
Do you know how the switch works?
What switch did you fit (Black/Green)?
Is it the correct one?
Was it fitted correctly?
Did you not force it and subsequently break it?
So many questions ... You'd be surprised how many DIY-"mechanics" screw up this simple fix.

Re: Brake Lights Always On
Start with your ignition switch. I suspect you'll find the fault there.

Re: Brake Lights Always On
Hi
Whats was the problem with the brakes? I have the same problem. I got a new switch but the brake lights stay on. I send both switches for testing. The switches are fine.

Re: Brake Lights Always On
you have one shot at fitting a new switch. if you get it wrong it 'resets' to the wrong posiiton.
