The Vemo V25‑73‑0012 Brake Light Switch is a high‑performance, mechanical foot‑activated switch designed to provide reliable illumination of vehicle brake lights and reverse indicators. Engineered with precision, this component ensures that the driver’s intent to slow or stop is communicated instantly to surrounding traffic through clear visual signals.

Key Functionalities

Immediate Activation: When the driver depresses the pedal, the switch closes the circuit, triggering the brake lights and reverse lamps without delay. This instant response enhances safety by giving other road users a prompt indication of braking or reversing actions.

Dual‑Mode Operation: The V25‑73‑0012 can be configured to activate both brake lights and reverse lights, depending on the vehicle’s wiring scheme. This versatility makes it suitable for a wide range of commercial and passenger vehicles.

Robust Mechanical Design: Constructed from durable materials, the switch withstands repeated foot pressure cycles and harsh environmental conditions such as temperature extremes, vibration, and exposure to road salts or chemicals.

Compatibility

The Vemo V25‑73‑0012 is engineered for broad compatibility across multiple vehicle platforms. It has been successfully installed in:

• MERCEDES‑BENZ models including Vito Bus, Vito Van, and Classe V
• FORD, OPEL, and other GENERAL MOTORS vehicles
• Various commercial vans, trucks, and passenger cars that require a reliable brake light switch.

Installation Guide

The installation process is straightforward for technicians familiar with automotive electrical systems:

1. Disconnect the vehicle battery to ensure safety during wiring.
2. Locate the existing brake light switch or the designated mounting point on the pedal assembly.
3. Mount the V25‑73‑0012 securely, aligning the foot contact area with the driver’s foot position.
4. Connect the wiring harness to the vehicle’s brake light circuit, ensuring correct polarity and secure solder or crimp connections.
5. Reapply power and test the switch by depressing the pedal; the brake lights should illuminate immediately.
