Ecosport Brake Light Error

Hey, I'm having trouble with the brake light on my 2016 Ford Ecosport diesel with 193091 km. I'm getting an error and the light isn't working. The infotainment system also shows an error. I think it could be the brake light switch, but I'm not sure how to diagnose it.

The 2016 Ford Ecosport diesel had a brake light error, with the light not functioning and an error displayed on the infotainment system. The issue was suspected to be related to the brake light switch. Upon inspection, the brake switch was found to be dislodged, and reconnecting it resolved the problem without incurring repair costs.

Did this summary help you solve your problem?

Sounds familiar. I had a similar issue with my old Opel Astra. Same symptoms: error message and a dead tail light. Have you checked the brake pedal position?

Thanks for the tip! You mentioned checking the brake pedal position. Could you say a bit more about what I should be looking for?

Yeah, sure. I mean, in my case, it turned out to be a faulty brake switch. It's located near the brake pedal. Taking it to a workshop might be the easiest solution.

Thanks again for the advice! I checked the brake switch like you said, and it was the problem. It was just dislodged somehow – probably my fault. I reconnected it, and everything's working now. No repair costs!
