Brake Light Switch Replacement Kia Sportage 2005-2010 – EASY!

This is how to replace the brake light switch for a 2005-2010 Kia Sportage. At the end of the video I break down exactly how much money you will be saving doing the repair yourself. The brake light switch controls when your brake lights turn on, when that switch doesn’t work anymore neither do your lights. So it is really important that you have a functional switch installed on your vehicle!

Thanks for the video! My ESC Off light came on and I thought I needed to replace the brake light switch. I switched it following your helpful video but the ESC Off light was still on. It turned out I had to actually replace the break light bulbs! The original break light switch was still fine.

At about 4 and a half minutes in you explain how the switch works but contradict yourself by saying that when your foot is not on the petal the the plunger is fully pushed into the housing and that when you let off the petal it extends back out. However, you can’t let off a brake petal if your foot isn’t on it to begin with. Can you please clarify which way the plunger is when the petal is not engaged vs engaged? Thanks.

So I have a 2011 Kia Sportage. I was driving along and it just died on the side of the road. We checked the alternator and it’s OK but the funny thing is. I got a new battery because the old one was shot. I inserted the key turn the switch little the lights in the pretty stuff turn on and then as soon as I turned the key to actually start the vehicle they killed the battery
