(Translated from German)
Summary of the thread
A 2019 Skoda Kodiaq Diesel owner experienced an ABS warning light and a non-functioning brake light, suspecting the brake light switch as the cause. This issue is not uncommon, as other Skoda owners have reported similar problems. The brake light switch was replaced, resolving the ABS warning light issue, and the repair cost was around €200. This suggests that replacing the brake light switch is a common and effective solution for these symptoms.

Hi, I can understand you, but don't worry. Last time I took my 2016 Skoda Karoq to the garage, I also had the problem with the ABS warning light and the brake light switch. It was nothing serious and went quite quickly. The garage repaired it quickly and everything worked as usual again.

Hey, thanks for your quick reply. Have you had any other complications since then? And can you remember how much you paid to get it fixed? I have no idea what to expect and would appreciate a rough estimate. Thanks again!

Hi, that's right, I forgot to mention that. Even though it was quite quick, I had to pay a lot because I probably had a faulty control unit. I had to pay around €1000 to repair a defective control unit.

Hi everyone, I also own a 2019 Skoda Kodiaq. Mine now has almost 80K mileage and some time ago I also had problems with my brake light switch. With such mileage, it seems that the brake light switch is more likely to malfunction. After I had the part replaced in the workshop, there were no further problems. The cost for me was around €150. I hope that helps you. I'm sure the guys at the garage will do it!

Hello and thank you all for your replies! I went to the garage and spoke quite casually about the problems with the car. Luckily the mechanic helped me straight away and was very professional. He replaced the brake light switch and the ABS warning light was no longer a problem either. In fact, the whole thing only cost me around €200, so I'm definitely happy that it wasn't more! All in all, I'm relieved that everything is working again and I hope that I won't have any more major problems with my Kodiaq in the near future. Thanks again for your advice and support!
