Break lights only working when pedal pressed hard

Pipp · 01-25-2019, 01:22 AM

Hi guys

So it was pointed out to me in the traffic the other day that my break lights are not working properly.
On closer inspection , when I break softly , the lights do not come on and as I depress further they come on , but at that point I am breaking quite hard.

Have any of you had this problem and is it an easy fix ?

Adjust the brake pedal switch. See FSM (link in my sig) for more info.
