    All I do when ordering from anywhere is quote a part number, as there is no confusion - I do it with dealers and wreckers etc. Much easier that way

    Land Rover Part Number: XKB500110
    Seems to be Ford Part Number: SW6572

    Everything you'd ever want to know and more about the switch <here> !!

    Switch changing procedure I found written up on Disco3 attached to this post too.

    Cheers,
    Scott

    EDIT: looks like it was used on a lot more vehicles than just Ford according to this site:
    FORD 1 820 183 (1820183) Brake Light Switch

    Hi Scott. Landrover price $54 Identical part from Ford $33, Interesting thing it was a multiple franchise dealer at Tamworth. Same salesperson. Got one today and fitted. Noticed the old one a bit loose in bracket . cheers Don

    Smile D3 LIMP MODE NIGHTMARES

    Left Tamworth after replacing Bulbs and Brake switch. Thought I had it beaten. 20K short of Toowoomba Ding Ding Limp mode.
    Off to the Landrover dealer workshop.
    Now fixed hopefully. Fuel Rail pressure barely making 160MPA and only under tow load.
    So New lift Pump, Filter , Injection Pump & Belt, Several sensors, and replaced some corroded elect plug terminals to sensors and engine ECU and FPCUnit A lot of hard work. Took 3 weeks to trouble shoot and fix.
    Just about a new vehicle now so will have to last till we are too old to caravan around

    .... I guess the codes were trying to point towards fuel system.

    Disco3 no more.

    Sorry to say this but I got rid of my Disco3 and no more.... It was affecting my mental health considerably, was doing my head in. We spent a fortune on it but could not get rid of limp mode. EXTREMELY dangerous with caravan in tow. Ruined our years travels for winter. struggled home and sat by the fire,
    I want to say thanks far and wide and to all who helped with advice for the support. Keep an eye out for my leftovers. cheers Don

    Sad to hear Don.
    I hope you have a better run out of whatever you replace it with.
