Default Brake light switch

Hi everyone well it’s summer again and I’m slowly working on two cars but this is about my 1990 convertible. Last year I changed the clutch master and slave thinking that was my no clutch problem because 500 miles before I did all new clutch and dmf. Well it turned out to be a brand new throw out bearing from wonderful china , so long story longer I paid big dollars and a long time finding a nos bearing and everything is great. Ok now to the problem lol I thought maybe my kid hit something and knock the plug off the brake switch cause I noticed I have no brake lights or the small light but the hazards work So with a lot of pain , just had back surgery and don’t bend like I used two. So I see with a mirror there are two brake switches one about 1/2” in diameter one about 1/4” diameter. So which one am I supposed to suspect? I think the big one. Also the switch for the clutch is there but I know that part. Thanks


Hard to get a picture but I think from a members photo the big one on the left is the stop light switch but what is the small one on the right ?

Also this brake light does not work so I’m guessing it is with the others on the bigger switch ?
