Anyone know how to remove electronic hand brake switch
Hi,
My auto hand brake switch has got more and more sticky to use over the past month. Maybe some dirt or dust is making it feel like this, but I`m sure if i could take it out and clean it, this would help...does anybody know how to remove the electronic hand brake switch...? Thanks Last edited by Ellmat; 03-12-2013 at 07:11 AM.. |

I have cleaned the area with hot water and a tooth pick, but it is still not perfect. |

Wouldn't that be McDonald "chips"?
Always wondered what a Scotsman was doing cooking pomme frites! Can I supersize that for ya?

Just wanted to make this a fresh post, Sean's explanation & images worked a charm for me to remove my 2015 520d console.
Not many good descriptive explanations as this one were found in my www search.....hopefully this remains a well regarded, searched post. |

Will following these steps allow you to replace the parking brake switch as well? Mine is cracked. I guess the PO pulled on it too hard or leaned on it and I've been wanting to replace it.

It's a warranty/repairable part as it's considered part of the safety system...Book it in!
(To answer your question, yes it will. But wrap your gear selector to prevent damage, dealer damaged mine when they replaced the park brake switch and it had to go back in for a replacement) |
