Opel Mokka (2018, petrol): Problems with ABS warning light and defective brake light

ABS warning light

Brake light not working

Hi guys, I have recently had a problem with my Opel Mokka (built in 2018, petrol engine). On the one hand, the car shows the ABS warning light and on the other hand, the brake light no longer works. I suspect that this could be due to a defective brake light switch. Have any of you ever had similar problems? How did you get it fixed at the garage and what were your experiences? Any help is welcome!

Hi, I had the same problem with my Opel Mokka (built in 2016, diesel), just a different model. I have some experience with cars, but I'm not a professional. In my case, the control unit was defective. Had to have it repaired in the workshop and cost me around 1000.0 euros. However, for more detailed help, could you provide more information about your car? How many kilometers has it driven? Were there any previous problems or modifications?

Hey, thanks for the tip! My Mokka already has 142840 km on it and has run without any problems so far. The last service was recently, but the garage didn't find anything unusual. It's quite annoying when problems like this suddenly occur. I'll probably go to the Opel dealer and have the control unit checked. Maybe it really is that. But 1000.0 euros is quite a lot of money. How long did the repair take you?

Hey, no problem, you're welcome! The repair on my Mokka took about a week - they replaced the control unit and checked everything. Expensive, yes, but afterwards everything ran as normal again. If your Opel comes out of the service and everything is fine, it would be money well spent. Just make sure you get a proper diagnosis and cost estimate before you place the order for the repair. I hope it won't be that expensive for you! Good luck!

Hi, thanks for the advice! A week is a long time, but if everything works again after that, it might be worth it. I will definitely ask for a detailed diagnosis and cost estimate. Hopefully it won't be that expensive. I'll keep you posted on how it goes. Thanks again for your help!
