Thanks! I may have accidentally displaced the brake light switch while adjusting the footwell lighting. Could a minor displacement cause such a complete failure of the brake lights and related error messages?

Yes, a slight displacement could absolutely cause that. The switch is quite sensitive. I’d suggest having a qualified technician check the brake system immediately; it's better to be safe than sorry!

I took it to a trusted workshop. The technician confirmed that the brake light switch was indeed slightly dislodged due to user error and re-seated it properly. The repair cost was 0€, and the issue is resolved.

I had a similar problem with my Leaf. Were you messing about near the brake pedal recently? Maybe you bumped something down there. It could also explain why you're getting all those errors at once.
