no brake lights, shift lock
my shift lock isnt disengaging properly and my brake lights arent coming on when i apply the brakes. i called the dealer and spoke to an advisor and he said it was the brake switch.. has anyone had this go out on them?

local parts stores will have it- yes they fail on all types of cars-
stop using the brakes so much!!! and stop driving NOW!!!! with no brake lights!!!
Easy to install- a nut- a wire- adjust it back up- probably even in the gen2 DIY section

there is a reason its hard to drive off with no brake lights......they really discourage that!
For others in an emergency: your ignition key is designed to fit in the emergency release- remove cover- insert key straight down and push to unlock

Go to teh dealer and pick up the 25 dollar switch, crawl under the dash and in 5 min you can have the old out and the new in. Its very simple and many have had it go out.
