Thanks for the quick response. I had the error codes read at a local garage. You mentioned brake light switch. Is it easy to check/replace? Any idea where it's located?

Yeah, sounds like the same problem. Replacing it yourself is possible, but it can be a bit fiddly. It's located near the brake pedal assembly. If you're not comfortable doing it yourself, I'd recommend taking it to a workshop. They'll diagnose it properly and replace the switch if needed. Could be user error, but those switches do fail.

Thanks a lot for the advice! Turns out it was indeed the brake light switch. It was a quick fix, and I managed to replace it myself. No cost involved. Appreciate your help!

I had a similar issue with my Ranger, although I don't remember the exact year. It turned out to be a faulty brake light switch. Check that first. Where did you get the error codes read?
