  Stop lamp switch, task The Stop lamp switch provides the signal about the actuation of the brake pedal.  
  Stop lamp switch, function
  • The N.O. contact (1) forwards the signal for brake pedal actuation to the stop lamps (stop lamp switch-on)
  • The opener contact (2) gives the signal about brake actuation to the ESP control unit or ESP, SPS and BAS control unit (N47-5), which then transmits the signal on further via the CAN data bus.
