Checking the brake light (Mitsubishi Colt 4)

Check the fuse in the fuse box.

If the fuse is faulty, check or replace the brake light bulb.

If the brake light bulbs are not damaged, check the brake light switch, which is located on the bracket above the brake pedal. When you press the pedal, a push pin comes out of the switch. The switch contact closes, and the brake light comes on.

To check the brake light switch, disconnect the two cable connectors from it.

Turn on the ignition.

If the brake light comes on when both contacts of the connector are shorted with a jumper, then the brake light switch is faulty and must be replaced.
