Brake pedal switch replacement

Model: Volkswagen Golf Golf IV, Golf 4, MK 4 - Years 1997-2003
Part: Brake system

The brake pedal switch is located right above the pedal lever and is fixed with a bayonet coupling: to be able to remove it, it is therefore sufficient to rotate it about ninety degrees anticlockwise and pull it upwards to remove it from its site; then disconnect the power plug and insert it into the new switch; align the latter so that it fits into its housing and rotate it ninety degrees clockwise until it clicks into place. At the end of the installation, check the correct operation of the new switch by pressing the pedal and checking that the brake lights come on.
