- SL350 2012 R230
Hi everyone,
It seems my brake light switch on my 2012 SL350 R230 is starting to give me problems. When I try to move the gear lever out of Park it sometimes won't move unless I press further on the brake pedal.
I have ordered a new brake light switch and was wondering if anyone here has experience of replacing one. It looks very easy but I have two questions:
1. In what position should the plunger be when you insert it in the hole. Should it be extended and pulled all the way out? Or in? Or doesn't it matter?
2. Does the car need to be told via the OBD that a new one has been fitted, does it need to be updated in any way or it simply a straight swap over with no other procedure?
Thanks very much.
