Thank you for your input. Could you perhaps elaborate on the specifics of your experience? Did the error messages match, and was the brake light failure intermittent or constant?

Yes, the error message was the same. The brake lights sometimes worked, sometimes didn't, which was dangerous. I would suggest you take it to the workshop. They should be able to diagnose and replace the switch.

I appreciate the advice. It turned out to be a user error. I had inadvertently adjusted the driver seat after a cleaning service, which blocked the brake switch's range of motion. It was a simple fix, and the total cost was 0€.

I have a SpaceTourer, though I don't remember the exact year, and I had a similar issue last year. It sounds like your brake light switch may be faulty, just like mine. It's a common problem, I think, just like a fuse blowing in a circuit.
