	It'll be the switch behind the (brake!) pedal. A bit fiddly to replace I found but not beyond my basic skills. You need a different switch depending whether the car has the check system or not. If you remove the switch you'll be able to see if it has 2 or 4 pins. Although, thinking about this, you mustn't have the check system otherwise it would tell you that it's faulty, wouldn't it! A replacement for mine last year was �4 or something.
