Break light switch

I just bought the c240 4matic from an auction and noticed that the break light are not responding to stepping on the break. Fuses and light bulbs are good. I removed the cover under the steering wheel and looked to locate the break switch light but could not find any along the break stem and up to the dashboard. I also could not find any loose harnes around. Where else can I look to solve the problem?

When you make irritating and asinine comments like this it is no wonder you were suspended for a time from the W211 group.

You are brainwashing other members with this post, just like you did it on other forum.
Alex is grown-up person and he can deal with his mistakes.
