Dual Contact Brake Light Switch

Ok. Final update.

The car is fixed.

Let me tell you how. THanks to Shandy. I went to ParkPlace Mercedes and bought the switch for $31 incl. tax.

I replaced the switch on faith and did not test the old one. I turned the key on and started it and the lights immediately went out. Hooray!!

Thanks Shandy

I thought that the brake light switch drained the battery and caused the battery to fall below the threshold and cause the error.

The switch has 2 2pin plugs on it and perhaps its a redundancy built in or not. I dont know. but it worked.
