A buddy of mine is selling his 98 5-speed manual trans V70 base. Rear brake lights are intermittent and usually have stopped working. I looked up Vida but cannot find a brake switch mounted to the booster like on the 850's and 99- V/S70's.

Where is the switch attached and can someone tell me the part number and or a link to the parts drawing?

Thanks,

Neil.

IIRC, the one on the booster is a variable sensor
that's an ABS input. The one for the brake lights
is a simple switch mounted above the pedal.
Probably just got loose and needs adjustment.

Thanks my friend, I thought that may be it, but Vida was no help!
