    MK2 IBIZA - brake lights come on when pressing clutch. Any ideas?

    Hi All,

    i have a strange issue on my 1999 MK2 IBIZA.
    whenever i press clutch, i get my brake lights on.
    and i just have to press it about 20-30%, not even all the way for them to come on.
    i checked, where the pedals are, and i could not really see anything wrong there.
    i'm suspecting that it is to do with the sensor of the brake pedal, but not sure.

    has anyone seen this before, or knows how to fix?

    thanks!

    checked for bare wire touching pedal?? or any metal due to tight wire?
    or equal motion of brake pedal when pressing clutch thus activating switch??
