well I replaced the brake light switch a few weeks ago, (has a total of like 50 miles usage) and finally got it back together tonight with the new carpet, went to go for a spin, no brake lights, moved the connector to goes from the wiring harness to the brake light wires and all was good,I then proceeded with my drive, came back home, then decided to run to the store with he midget, and once again no brake lights, this time took the rubber off the connectors, discovered they were quite rusty so replaced them all together, and still no brake lights, have tail lights, and everything else though... I'm not enjoying this MG ownership all that much
