Hi there, my car failed it’s warrant on no brake lights or high stop lights working. The park lights and the indicators work, and the lights come on when the headlights are on. I e checked the fuses and they seem to be fine.

so I’m thinking it’s the brake light switch, which I have located. My question is how do I get it out. From other instructions I’ve read they say a 1/4 turn but I tried it and it doesn’t budge. Maybe I need to turn it harder. Any ideas? It’s a Mazda Atenza 2003 Manual sports wagon. Picture of it is above
