Brake light kill switch
Does anybody have any experience with a brake light kill switch on the 212 facelift? I’ve got a ‘15 wagon and I’m very interested

I had to google this to figure out what this is... and it is exactly what it sounds like, someone wanting to disable their brake lights -- for reasons.
Sounds extremely dumb, reckless, and a fun way to be sued to oblivion.
Good luck.

Very common usage in the US. Very helpful when speeding in a pack of cars. Radar from behind and the officer looks for brake lights.
Just find the switch at the brake pedal and extend/add wires and switch to your desired location.

As someone that like to drive fast, this is quite possibly the stupidest and most dangerous “mod” I’ve ever seen. Take your tickets like an adult or learn how to drive better. Just about the dumbest comment would be to want to turn the brakes lights off in a pack of cars that are possibly speeding. It’s probably best to jump off the cliff now and save others the heartache of you killing there loved ones.
sued? Op Will be lucky if not killed by the accident he WILL cause.

Especially at speed. I had this "mod" when I was 16. I used it to ditch the cops where I lived. Never had it again.

Got a similar one here Heeeellllllpppppppp
Changed the switch and the fault is still there.
also i get an error from circuit 50 rear sam and when i look at the actuations i get variable voltages when I press the brake pedal.
Right when i start the car the voltage is around 10v which i believe it sends the error and if i restart straight after the voltage goes up and the esp light goes away from the dash.
Also it was working without fuse 21 in the slot as I recently bought the ******* only to figure out that the fuse was not even there?????
Im completely lost and dont know where to start.
Help!!!!

Terrible idea, the brake light switch also controls other functions besides lights.
