Interesting. No, I haven't checked if the error disappears when pressing the brake pedal. Where is the brake light switch located exactly? And is it something I can replace myself without special tools?

It's usually located near the top of the brake pedal. While you might be able to replace it yourself, I'd recommend taking it to a workshop. Could be a faulty replacement.

Thanks! I went to the workshop. Turns out it was the brake light switch indeed, and the error was logged because the pedal wasn't fully returning and pushing the switch. They adjusted the pedal, and now it's working perfectly. No cost, just a quick adjustment!

I had a similar problem with my old Volvo. It turned out to be the brake light switch. Did you check if the error disappears when you depress the brake pedal?
