Brake pedal spring?
The brake pedal does not return 100% when pressed, it does return but not all the way, meaning that the brake light remains on.
I think its the spring but I'm not sure if this is an easy fix or an expensive one :/
Can you even still buythe spring?
Any help would be appreciated, thanks.
Its a 1981 mk1 gl 1.5 auto

an 82 tin top should be pressure switch. however paul is right, easy to check, just look at the master cylinder.paul_c said
Check what your car has (in terms of brake light switch - pedal mounted or pressure switch(es) on the master cylinder). There doesn't seem to be a clear pattern of what cars had which style of switch.
