brake light switch keeps going out

[David Fields]

I have a 2001 maxima
Brake light switch keeps failing after a few weeks

Back in 2019 I replaced original
with FACET branded switch from rock-auto. That had been working fine until recently fall 2022
So I replaced it again with on off eBay and few weeks later it was broken. I complained to the seller and got my $$ back. And I ordered a different branded one from a separate seller and it did the same thing. Stopped working after a few weeks

Note the car also has ABS light on but per auto parts store scanner it seems fine and functioning
The ABS light may have something todo with the break light switch as they may be on the same circuit.

Any advice ?

Note this car is on it way out and don’t want to spend much $$ on it . Just put new battery in it after 3 years old battery died.
