Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

4 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I have the Carrera 2, 2004 manual. And all of a sudden, none of my brake lights are working. Any ideas on how to diagnose or fix?

POST 2Original post

Very common for the brake pedal brake light switch to crap out. I had to replace mine. Search on forum for "replace brake light switch"

POST 3Original post

That switch also controls cruise control feature (so does the clutch switch). The two switches may be interrelated.

POST 4 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Thanks, it was the break light switch, a bit of a challenge to fix, but got it done in about 20 minutes.
