Keep your brake lights firing the instant you press the pedal with the Beck/Arnley Brake Light Switch 201-2434. This plug-in switch is designed as a direct replacement for Original Equipment (OE) applications across foreign nameplates, matching OE form, fit, and function. It drops in on the 1999 Acura EL, 1996-2004 Acura RL, 1996-2000 Honda Civic, 1998-2001 Honda CR-V, and 1997-2001 Honda Prelude — see the "Vehicles it fits" section to confirm your engine.
A brake light switch mounts at the brake pedal and closes its circuit the moment the pedal moves, sending the signal that illuminates the brake lamps and, on many vehicles, feeds the cruise control, ABS, and shift-interlock circuits. If a worn or failed switch is behind brake lights that won't come on, stay lit, or a cruise control that won't set, this replaces it and restores that signal.
