Exclamation 850 brake fluid resevoir switch leakage

Hi,
I found that leakage of brake fluid reservoir switch. Can the switch be replaced by our self without need to reset the ECU or whatever programming?

Here's some photo of the leakage:

That is the EBD switch you can replace it but you will have to bleed the brakes afterwords.

Default Same Problem

I have a brake fluid leak at the same location on my 1996 850 non-turbo. It looks like an easy fix, but I can't find any EBD valves/switches online. Do you know a vendor who sells them?

Thanks.
