smudger 8 Report post Posted July 7, 2014 I've just started getting this error message and it appears none of the brake lights are working. I've checked the fuse and that seems fine. Anyone have any ideas and/or do i need to find someone near Blenheim ( maybe Nelson) who can plugin and check the error message and clear it ? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
euroriffic 609 Report post Posted July 7, 2014 I would check the switch at the brake peddle to see if that's the issue. Sounds like it to me Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

smudger 8 Report post Posted July 8, 2014 So it sounds like i need the switch which is part number 61318360417 - are there any NZ suppliers for that or do i need to get it in from offshore (US$30 plus shipping from Bimmerzone ) ? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

smudger 8 Report post Posted July 17, 2014 Switch replaced and all fixed. Ended up taking it to the local auto electrician ( who was very familiar with the problem ) after spending to much time upside down in the footwell trying to sort it myself.....too tall and a bit to inflexible.
