It is recommended to inspect the switch if the ESP system does not respond or if warning lights illuminate on the dashboard. Installing the switch involves removing the surrounding control panel to access the switch housing, disconnecting the faulty unit, and replacing it with the new part. Professional installation is advised for precise fitting and to avoid electrical damage.
