Title: No brake lights
Post by: Jonesie on 18 July 2009, 19:31:06

Hi guys, just bought my 2nd Omega and was wondering if anyone could help me. Its a 2.5 Elite and the brake lights dont work at all, which also means i've got to push the little yellow button on the selector to get it out of park. I've checked and changed the bulbs but theyre fine. Im not to sure where the hell to start with it. Anyone have any ideas?

I would say its the brake light switch.

Yes, I would favour the brake light switch as well, as they do work loose :'( :'(

top end of the brake pedal I do belive so you need to get down as low as you can in the foot room

I took the panel out and stuck my head in, not easy i might add and the switch is in the right place and it is acting on the pedal just fine so im assuming the switch is fubbard
