Brake Light Switch: Service and Repair

The stop light switch has a slip fit in the mounting sleeve which permits positive adjustment by pulling the brake pedal up firmly against the stop. The pedal arm forces the switch body to slip in the mounting sleeve bushing to position the switch properly.
1. Disconnect wires from switch and remove switch from bracket.
2. Position replacement switch in bracket and push inward until fully seated. Brake pedal arm moves switch to correct distance on rebound. Check if pedal is in full return position by lifting slightly by hand.
3. Connect switch electrical connector.
