"Engine Worksop" warning and flashing glowplug

Hi,


After receiving this message on the central console computer of my MkIV Golf Estate and having a look round the internet it would seem that there is most likely a problem with my brake light switch, however most people seem to be reporting that the bulbs aren't lighting up and the central strip is. I have the opposite problem, the central strip isn't lighting up except about 2cm at each end.


Is this a brake switch problem? And how do I get access to the brake switch to replace it? Any pictures or guides would be fantastic.



Many thanks in advance.

It's activated by the brake pedal.

Can a mod fix the title, should be Workshop, thanks
