The Facet Brake Light Switch is a brake control switch sold as a single piece, with part number 71286 and OEM number 4534.71. It is listed under braking and brake components, and it is supplied as an each unit with no warranty stated.
This switch suits a range of Citron and Peugeot applications, including Citron C5 and Citron Dispatch, plus Peugeot 508, Peugeot 508 SW and Peugeot Expert references in the fitment data. The presence of model-year entries such as Citron C5 2008 to 2016 and Peugeot 508 2010 to 2018 makes it important to match the exact vehicle application before ordering.
Brake light switches play a direct role in brake lamp operation, so the correct part number matters as much as the vehicle model. With Facet as the brand and 71286 as the key identifier, this part should be checked carefully against the existing switch and the vehicles application details before fitment is confirmed.

Application and Buying Notes
Use the part number 71286 and OEM number 4534.71 as the main checks when comparing this brake light switch with the part already fitted to the vehicle. The fitment data lists Citron C5, Citron Dispatch, Peugeot 508, Peugeot 508 SW and Peugeot Expert references, but the correct match still depends on the exact vehicle application and build details.
Because brake light switches are a functional safety-related component, the shape, connector arrangement and application must line up with the original unit. The listing does not state universal fitment, so it is best to verify the part number on the old switch and compare it with the vehicle model and year references shown here.
This item is supplied as a single switch, not a kit, and no warranty is stated. If you are replacing a failed brake switch, confirm that the fault actually points to the switch and not to wiring, lamps or another braking-related issue before fitting the new part.
The most useful identifiers on this listing are Facet, 71286 and 4534.71. If your vehicle is one of the supported Citron or Peugeot applications in the fitment data, those identifiers should still be checked against the original component and the vehicles exact specification before purchase.
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 71286 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.
