Hi,
My Mum's been having an occasional problem with the battery on her 05 reg Seat Ibiza being flat in the morning.
Initially I suspected a battery/ alternator fault, however one of the neighbours noticed the brake lights intermittently being on overnight.
Any ideas where to start? - is there a brake light switch under the pedal.
Thanks,
Chris.
Under normal circumstances, do the brake lights operate with the ignition off?
Chris
Good question - I'll ask her to check tonight.
Yes, there is a switch there. It just clips in and is a common failure. It can also cause the engine managment light to come on.
There's a modified part, and it is not expensive.
