Well done.
That is the brake light switch.
Check in your van above the brake pedal. Can you see it. The metal will be touching the plastic of the switch.

I will check it tommorow when light will appear. Just one more question the metal touching the pedal is correct or wrong ? how its the faulty piece should act or looks like any ideas ?

When you press the brake pedal down with your hand, you will see the plastic go into the switch.
Check how many wires are going into the switch. If it is faulty, then the fault is inside the switch.
When you look at it tomorrow, take a photo for me. The photo must show all the wires.

Thanks. The photos are very clear.
In picture three, can you see the plug with three or four wires. Please tell me if that is the brake pedal.

Thanks.
I dont have a Vito but I am learning thanks to you. So, if that is the gas pedal, then that switch in the picture controls cruise control.
So the brake pedal switch should be above the brake pedal, but I cant see it in the picture.
Can you? It also should have about four wires in the plug.

You can use a spare mirror to see awkward places.

Thank you very much.
I will try and find where is the ring on the front wheel which helps the speed sensor.

Hi
I have one more idea.
Your van has a small battery for stop/start. Charge that small battery.
