The brake lights are not working 850 1996

posted by  someone claiming to be steven on  Fri May 13 00:45 CST 2005 [RELATED]

Guys,

The three brake lights on my 850R wagon are not working. I checked the fuse Number 12 - 10A it is fine. It is unlikely the three bulb to be gone.
I did a search through the forum and found suggestions to check the brake light contact switch (under the brake pedal) and the integrity relay. My questions are:
1. Where is that relay ?
2. Seems there are 2 switches under the brake pedel - which one is the brake one ?

3. My mechanic changed the read disks few weeks ago. I did not pay attention on the brake light at that time. Could he be forgotten to connect something ?

4. Any other suggestions ?

This 850 has been a pain in the ... compared with my old 740T. 850 are nice cars but all time there is some annoying fault.

Thanks a lot in advance, Steven

850R, 130K km
