Mercedes Sprinter Brake Light Switch – Facet OEM | 4-Pin | #0015456709 (2007–2018)
DESCRIPTION:
A failed brake light switch is one of the simplest electrical faults on a Sprinter — and one of the most important to fix promptly. When the switch fails, your brake lights stop illuminating when the pedal is pressed, creating a serious rear-end collision risk and an immediate traffic stop waiting to happen. In some configurations, a faulty switch also affects cruise control disengagement, ABS operation, and ESC functions. This is the Facet OEM 4-pin brake light switch for the NCV3 Sprinter — a direct plug-in replacement located behind the brake pedal.
What This Part Does
The brake light switch is a simple contact switch mounted on the brake pedal bracket. When the brake pedal is depressed, the switch closes and sends a signal to illuminate the brake lights, disengage cruise control, and in some cases inform the ABS and stability control modules that braking is occurring. When the switch fails — either by staying open (no brake lights) or closed (brake lights on constantly) — multiple systems are affected simultaneously.
Common Symptoms of a Failing Brake Light Switch
- Brake lights not illuminating when the pedal is pressed
- Brake lights staying on constantly with no pedal input
- Cruise control not disengaging when the brake pedal is pressed
- ABS or ESC warning lights triggered by switch signal loss
- Brake light warning in the instrument cluster
4-Pin Configuration
This switch uses a 4-pin spade connector. The NCV3 Sprinter also uses a 6-pin brake light switch variant depending on the model year and configuration. Always verify your existing switch pin count before ordering.
