Mini Clubman Brake Light Failure

I had a similar electrical issue manifest in my Clubman's tail light circuit! Intermittent brake light failure, the whole shebang. I was baffled at first. Did you check the positioning of the brake pedal itself? The switch activation point might be off. It's a long shot, but it's the easiest thing to inspect. I am curious: Does the error message appear immediately after starting the car, or only when you depress the brake pedal?

Interesting. Could you elaborate on the 'positioning of the brake pedal'? What exactly am I looking for?

Certainly! In my case, the brake pedal wasn't fully returning to its resting position, preventing the switch from fully disengaging. This caused intermittent issues. Look for anything obstructing the pedal's movement. If that doesn't work, a workshop visit might be necessary to properly diagnose the electrical issue.

Confirmed: the brake pedal wasn't fully returning. Repositioned it, issue resolved. Thank you for the advice.
