This top quality 3-pin brake light switch is a German-manufactured replacement part used across a wide range of aircooled and watercooled Volkswagen models. Mounted on the master cylinder, this switch is responsible for activating your brake lights the moment you press the brake pedal, providing a crucial safety signal to vehicles behind you.
The 3-pin configuration also supports dual-circuit brake systems and, on many vehicles, the brake warning light in the dashboard. Designed to precise OE specifications, this switch guarantees reliable operation, correct fitment, and long service life.
The unit is sold individually, and if you need the protective rubber boot, please order it separately (VW part number 171957911).
