Indeed mate. It's just infront of the drivers side footwell on
the chassis. It screws into the four way connection coming down
from the master cylinder.
Usual problem is shitty contacts due to wheel spray and
collected mud and shit. They are cheep however.

Beware cheap though, I've tried three Shitpart ones that didn't
work, in fact I took a continuity tester with me when I went to
exchange the second dud one, and the third was a dud, straight
from the packet.
I've since found one in an Intermotor box, but I've not used it
yet...

Had the same problem with wsl's a few years ago. Sorted it by
fitting a new brake light switch from my motorblike. Used a rear
brake switch on a bracket in the footwell with a spring from the
switch rod to the pedal.
I went this route because I got fed up with having to bleed the
brakes everytime a new switch was fitted.
