Brake lights

[Scrim-1]

When I gently touch the brake pedal I get no brake lights come on, if I press harder they come on.

is it a case of a faulty brake pedal switch or is it a common problem? It's a 2003 dynamique.

If you have paid membership (trust me, it's worth it!), there's a guide.

I'm not a paid member YET, any chance you could copy and paste it for me?

 

[BoatNonce]

That would defeat the point of paying for membership, wouldn't it

 

[Scrim-1]

Of course it would lol, help me out buddy.

i will be paying very soon tho.

 

[Bradd]

I didn't know about this, very useful will do that tomorrow

I doubt you'll find anyone willing to do that for you and rightly so. £12 is nothing when the guides and discounts can save you so much money.

Thanks for your input.

I had the same issue and that guide was invaluable. Literally less than a minute to fix it!

Well ive checked out the guide and done as follows, I pulled the plunger out a few clicks but as soon as the brake pedals touches the plunger it just gets pushed back in all the way?

its where the brake pedal switch is worn, think of how many times its been pressed over the years

I'll have to check but I think it's spring loaded, maybe the spring's snapped.
MicKPM any ideas?

They are spring loaded yes but that has no bearing on thee switches two contact latches being open or closed. The devil with these switches are in the setting up

Was this problem solved? I am having the same issue with my 2006 Dynamique, purchased a new brake light switch, fitted it a week ago and all seemed to be working well. That was until I went for a drive yesterday and the driver next to me at the junction pointed out my brake lights were not working. No idea where I'm going wrong.
