How to replace the brake pedal stop switch on a Panda 169

Model: Fiat Panda 169, MK 2 - Years 2003-2012
Part: Checks and maintenance

If all the brake light bulbs on the Panda don't work, it's certainly not a problem with the bulbs or an electrical problem, but the problem is with the switch button, which activates the brake lights. Let's see where it is located: in the direction of the brake pedal, at the end of its arm, we find the button. To remove it we must turn it counterclockwise until, pulling it from behind, it slips off, removing it from the electrical connector. The spare part can be found on all major e-commerce platforms: for example on Amazon it costs 12.78 euros + 3.99 euros for delivery costs. Replacing it is very simple, just follow the (very simple) removal procedure in reverse, then reattach the connector, insert the button into the hole, and turn it clockwise. Operation completed.
