RAV4 Hybrid Brake Light Failure

Has anyone experienced brake light issues with their 2016 Toyota RAV4 Hybrid? My brake lights aren't working, the error memory is storing an error, and I'm getting an error message in the infotainment system. The car has 180277 km on it.

A 2016 Toyota RAV4 Hybrid experienced brake light failure, with an error message in the infotainment system and an error stored in the memory. The issue was identified as a faulty brake light switch, which can trigger error codes and disable the brake lights. The problem was resolved by checking and fixing the brake light switch, which had been dislodged during adjustments under the dashboard.

I have a RAV4 Hybrid, and that sounds familiar. A similar brake light failure was a faulty brake light switch. Have you checked the switch near the brake pedal?

Thanks for the quick reply. I haven't checked the switch. Could a faulty brake light switch cause all the symptoms, including the error message?

Yes, it can. The brake light switch is important to the car's computer. A bad switch can trigger error codes and disable the brake lights, causing the error message. Check for damage, but diagnosis needs tools and expertise. I'd recommend a workshop.

Thanks! I had it checked, and the brake switch was the problem. I dislodged it adjusting something under the dash. No repair cost.
