'99 ML320 BAS/ESP and ETS LIGHTS

While I don't have problems too often this is an awkward one for me.

Recenlty I had both the BAS/ESP and ETS instrument cluster lights stay on following ignition. The truck runs fine, but of course there is no ESP function until I replace the switch

As luck would have it there was a "Free" (not an M-B word) clinic at the local dealer. They checked out my truck and told me that the "brake switch" was out and needed to be replaced for $200. They said that the turn out/turn in switch was located behind the brake pedal.

I do much of my own work_____ , but cannot see this switch that they are talking about - 'frustrating. Please, has anyone else replaced this switch and able to help me locate it? Or, is there a post that I missed that "shows" where the switch is located so that I can find and replace it?

Many thanks for your time and effort in replying to this post, I really do appreciate the guidance, MICHAEL
