Pug 206 - brake lights perm on

Recommended Posts

I had a quick look around the pedal area yesterday but could see anything, will have a proper look today.

 

Earth fault in the rear light area?

 

Maybe worth a look. I once changed a bulb in a saxo and then the lights went all spastic, then realised i hadnt fitted the right one.

used to have a 206 GTi and there is a connection in the passenger side kick well that might need some attention and this is a very common fault in 206s

 

You got a bit more detail please, I didnt have chance to look into it today.

As above, in the passenger footwell is a switch which is pressed when the bar that the brake pedal is attached to is rotated (when you press the pedal). unplug and remove the switch (really easy) and press the button on the top of a few times to loosen it - mine got stuck once on my old 206 and some bloke chased me 40 miles up the M6 at 3 in the morning to tell me that my brake lights were permanently on - I was sh*tting myself that he was trying to kill me, turned out he was a good samaritan! Restored my faith in humanity...briefly...got a speeding that night too!

As above really

 

You'll have to replace the brake light switch which is in the pass footwell only take's 5 minute's or so to do or take to your nearest dealer and they will replace it for arrox £30 all in. Even though the part itself is about £8 :rolleyes: but get the clip for it also as it comes separate (12p) because there very easy to brake
