Vemo Brake Light Switch V10-73-0103 5 Bar Normally Open Contact

The VEMO Brake Light Switch, part number V10-73-0103, is a brake component switch supplied as each and listed with a 5 bar switch pressure. It uses a normally open contact, so confirming the operating style against your vehicle’s original switch is important before ordering.

VEMO identifies this as a brake light switch in the braking group, with a one year warranty and a stated unit weight of 0.0407 kg. For buyers comparing replacements, the part number V10-73-0103 is the key identifier to match first, especially when the vehicle application is older or the brake switch design has been updated over time.

This switch is positioned for vehicles where the brake pedal circuit requires a normally open contact and a 5 bar pressure specification. The listed fitment group includes selected Audi, Porsche, Skoda and Volkswagen applications, but the exact match should still be checked carefully against the vehicle’s original part details and any existing switch markings.

Application and Buying Notes

When replacing a brake light switch, the safest comparison points are the part number V10-73-0103, the normally open contact design, and the 5 bar switch pressure. If any of those details differ from the original switch fitted to the vehicle, the part may not be the correct replacement even where the model name looks similar.

The listed applications cover a range of Audi, Porsche, Skoda and Volkswagen vehicles, including Audi 100 and 200, Porsche 356, Skoda 100 and 1000MB, and Volkswagen Beetle, Golf, Passat and Transporter. Because older vehicles can have changes in brake switch style, pedal assembly or wiring, it is sensible to confirm the existing switch form and connector arrangement before ordering.

This part is supplied as each and weighs 0.0407 kg. Those details can help when comparing against a removed switch or checking freight and handling, but they do not replace fitment verification. For brake-related electrical parts, the pressure rating and contact type are as important as the model name.

VEMO describes the part as using German-made European quality, with iSP-technology and antistatic packaging intended to protect programmed chip components, and it is made from high-quality materials with strict quality testing. Those are useful product quality indicators, but the practical fit still comes down to matching the vehicle application and the original part number carefully.

If you are unsure, compare the removed switch with the product listing and confirm the brake light circuit behavior before fitting. A brake switch that does not match the original operating style can lead to incorrect brake light operation, so the contact type and pressure specification should be checked as carefully as the vehicle range.

Before supply, the safest approach is to confirm the original unit details against the listed part number, voltage, output rating, mounting arrangement, and pulley configuration. That checking process is standard practice in the parts trade because visually similar units can still differ in service-critical ways.

For workshop, fleet, and equipment applications, accurate identification of part number V10-73-0103 helps avoid unnecessary freight, additional labour, and vehicle or machine downtime. Where the application is not straightforward, the original unit, OEM reference, or workshop records should be used as the primary confirmation point.

VEMO Brake Light Switch. Part number V10-73-0103 should be checked first. These details form the core reference points used by parts interpreters when confirming the correct replacement.

For part number V10-73-0103, the normal identification sequence is part number, electrical rating, mounting arrangement, connector or terminal style, and pulley or drive details. Using those checkpoints helps confirm that the listed unit matches the service requirement rather than only looking similar.

For a switch in workshop, fleet, trade, agricultural, or construction service, the listed electrical specification should be checked carefully. Incorrect selection can affect installation time, return freight, and equipment availability.

Available application references include 1600 1961, 1600 1962, 1600 1963, 1600 1964, AUDI 100, AUDI 100 1977. Even with application listings, final confirmation should still be based on the exact unit being replaced and the service requirements of the vehicle or machine.
