That magic restart sequence reminds me of some cars from my early days, where I would only park them at the top of a hill, to have the option of a free-wheel bump start if the electrics let me down. And I used to play the same game of timing stop lights when the clutch hydraulics would fail. I guess "Progress" is a relative thing! 😁

I think it's in neutral - he pulls the paddle as he jumps in. You can't expect a safety feature to work with a defective part. Obviously you need to have the brake pedal depressed when you put it in gear - and that safety feature needs to be turned off as soon as the car moves. Cars have a number of simple things that will leave you stranded if they don't work. I think the set-up it as good as it can get.

You could pop it back but that would only last til you got above 20mph. After numerous times stopping on the side of the road to fix it i eventually just ziptied it back up and kept industrial zip ties in my glove box in case it ever fell down again. Woulda taken it to the shop but that was a $500 fix bc it was all one piece and those zip ties were maybe $6 and one zip tie lasted well over 6 months at a time

@@16driver16 The reason it does that is that the computers are trying to "help" (out-think) you and so manual control never really is any more. It's why I won't buy anything with paddle shifting as it does stupid things like that. My father's car, an Audi, operates like a manual but when hitting the brakes below about 35mph will revert back to automatic/shift to the highest gear. I get why it does that - to not stall the engine, but then you are hunting for a gear all the time on mountain roads and slow turns (it simply won't stay in 2nd gear reliably when decelerating) Another fun thing is having the rev limiter at different points in every gear. WHY? I dunno. Welcome to VW Group cars? My Mustang... old school manual. No issues, no expenses going on 8 years and 130K miles. Original clutch and just does what you tell it to. Once I disabled the hill assist feature (sort of complicated process, similar to BMWs and their hidden features) it's been dead simple to operate.

I remember my dad always telling stories of the cars of his youth. That was the way he related to me, a lifelong car buff. When I was a little boy, I remember him driving a 1990 Pontiac Sunbird convertible. He would pull out of the driveway and drive halfway down the street before putting on his seatbelt, something which I always lectured him for. When we moved out of Flint, he kept the Sunbird for a few years and bought a 1993 Mazda Miata. Although most of the time the only thing dad would want to talk about was his latest dungeons and dragons game, I remember going to car shows with him throughout my childhood. He would tell stories of the 1967 Chevy Camaro RS/SS Convertible he had the privelage to drive when he got his license, or the 1978 Pontiac Formula Firebird that replaced it. The 1971 Porsche 914 that his mother was gifted from his father, or the 1980 Porsche 924 that his father bought to replace that. His stories were always about the cars. My dad always had a story to relate to any car problem. Someone once broke into his '78 Firebird and stole the registration, as if they thought they had the title to the car. He warned me that if I drove the Miata in an urban area, not to put the top up because if someone wanted to break into it, the top cost more than the radio. I remember taking my driver's test in my 1996 Saab 9000, and dad telling me about learning to parrallel park in a 1970s era Cadillac. I only bought the Saab because dad had one similar to it, a 2003 9-5, and he loved it more than anything. When I turned 16 in 2004 I had my Saab to drive to school. At that same time Dad gave me the Miata, and my grandmother gave me her 1984 Cadillac ElDorado. All the other kids in school hated me because I had such interesting and diverse cars to drive, or maybe just because I drove a different car to school every day. In the summer of 2011 I had just bought myself a 2002 Grand Prix 40th anniversary edition, and I remember remarking to one of my friends, "I wish our generation was gifted with the cars our parents had". My friend commented that my Pontiac was my version, if not better, than the cars dad had when he was that age. Dad always warned me that Chryslers had reverse threaded bolts, even in the early 2000s when he hadn't seen one in 30 years. I bought a 1996 Dodge Intrepid in 2008. Dad commented that he had never owned a Chrysler product before, and mom admonished him that he still hadn't. His last car was a 2017 Dodge Caravan, that we bought a year old. I remember telling him he finally got his Chrysler product. When I got older I bought a Jaguar X-Type. Dad loved riding in that car. Even though I was driving him to physical therapy, he acted as though I was driving him to the fanciest restaurant in town. I had sold his beloved Miata in 2012, but after 5 years I was finally able to buy another one, a 2002 model. He never got to ride in that one, although he did love to share pictures of it online. I learned my "car guy" ways from my dad, and even though he's gone I still will never forget the stories he told me, and I will always be the car guy that dad raised me to be.

Fun thing about those VW brake switches: they have some overcomplicated mechanism that engages as you turn the switch clockwise during installation. When you remove the brake switch, that internal collar turns and the switch will test as a dead switch. You can ONLY test them while installed, otherwise the internal mechanism effectively disables the two switches once the switch is removed from its bracket. And yes, it is effectively two switches in one. The half of the switch for the brake lights has no continuity (open) with the pedal released, then has continuity (closed) once the pedal is pressed and sends power to the brake lights. The other switch works the opposite way and sends its signal to the engine computer as a double check against the brake light switch itself. It sends power with the pedal not being pressed, then goes open circuit as you press the brake pedal. Those two signals should flip at the exact same time or the engine computer gets angry and sets a "brake switch implausible signal" code.

@@Wontreplyeverdontbother Working in IT myself, those old XP drives can actually be cloned as-is.(with Windows 7 being the last easy to image/clone OS) I'd highly recommend moving to a solid state drive to have one less point of failure - and just keep the mechanical drive as a spare. Apricorn makes a great adapter for that era of machine and getting to the hard drive is basically as simple as removing a couple of screws. Ah, the days before everything was glued and welded together. Those machines are dead simple to operate. NOTE - with a spare, he can find a same model/SKU of the same laptop and keep THAT as a spare. XP was like that - it simply didn't care about the drive and all you had to do was drop the cloned drive in and re-install the drivers. At the time we could have a person up and running in 30 minutes, mostly due to the time it took to get updates and fiddle with their user settings. NOW... it's a nightmare since a Win 10 "image" is basically a rough template and it's a good 2 hour process to get a machine ready and copy their user data over. It's actually just as quick to simply install from scratch in most cases.

@@DANIELGT500 things can go wrong after 20 years but a switch should be more reliable than that. One person in the comments said they had to replace this same switch three times in two years!

LS swaps are usually not my thing but somehow it works on a 911. Perhaps because so much of the 911-ness is retained simply by having the engine behind the rear axle. And the lightweight LS is not a bad replacement for the flat-6 and should offer some interesting changes to the performance characteristics

Had a friend with a similar problem. 2010 Kia Soul... I noticed that the brake lights weren't coming on and sure enough, the switch was bad. Kia even acknowledged that they were a known problem. So it was recommended I get a different branded one instead of the Kia one. Then I remember it being mentioned that there was an incident when the cruise was being used and when they put the brake on it kept accelerating. So they just would never use the cruise because they were scared of it. Then I realized why the cruise wasn't kicking off because the brake light switch is what triggered that. To me, that should have been a recall because that is a big safety concern for someone who wouldn't know to reach up and turn the button off quickly or in a situation where you might not even have time to do that.
