[Alpines] brake light switch failure-series v

New switches are available (or were?) from SS or Classic, but I've heard 
that they seldom fail, but will sludge up, or be affected by an air 
pocket. (Are you using silicone brake fluid?)

 Have you removed the switch and cleaned it / bled the brakes at the 
switch? You should do this before assuming the switch is at fault.
