Hi everyone, I was driving 3 days ago on the highway doing 75Mph and using my brake to slow down for traffic coming ahead (BOOM) my Electronic Stability Program (ESP) is not operative message and the warning light came on at the same time, my Cruise Control (CC) not working warning message came on too within minute or two! To make the story short, I ordered Mercedes's OEM brake switch replacement part (a common problem for the E series as I know of, maybe other models too, if they are using the same switch) for $19.95, and easy to replace DIY in 15 minutes for me! This part solved my ESP and CC problems! P.S. Make sure you are pushing on the brake paddle and HOLDING then install the new switch, NOW slowly release the paddle. This will reset the switch for your Brake Paddle Traveling Distens, ESP & CC! Happy Driving! 🙂
I pulled mine out of my ML320 W163 2001 model two days ago ordered a new one off Amazon for $25 pulled the old one off whack. The new one in working again everything straight away easy job
The length difference is because these have a ratchet self-adjustment when installed. You could yank the old one back out to the full length & reinstall to reset the travel. Possible that could fix an issue, but usually not. If you looked at new one after installing, it would look shorter. Pushing on the new one before installing might make it set itself wrong - if so, pull hard to get it back to full length before installing. It is difficult without a helper, but you are supposed to hold down the brake pedal when inserting - for the proper self-adjust. Probably OK if you can't hold it down very far, but if issues come back, that can be why & you should uninstall, pull it out to full length & figure out a way to depress pedal while you are installing. Also, if you couldn't hold pedal down very far, check to be sure your lights come on even with very slight initial pedal travel.
My Mercedes displayed EBS for two days. It was resisting going into park. Today it is not starting. Im going to try to replace the brake switch myself. Thank you

Hello how are you good I want to ask you for my car is a problem for SAP
what are the symptoms of a bad switch?
Any of these could be caused by something else, of course.
I don't see my brake switch
My ML 350
