C1 Brake Light Failure

My 2011 Citroen C1 with a gasoline engine has 81011 km and the brake lights have failed, triggering an error message. I checked fuses and wiring. Any ideas?

Hey! I had something similar happen with my C1. Does it happen more when it's damp or after heavy braking?

I haven't noticed a connection to dampness or braking. Could you share more about your experience and how you fixed it?

Sure thing. For me, it was a faulty brake light switch. I took it to a workshop. They swapped it out quickly, and that fixed it.

The brake light switch was the problem! It was improperly seated. I reseated it, cleared the error, and the brake lights work. Repair cost was 0€! Thanks for the help.
