Brake Light Switch: Service and Repair

Stoplamp Switch









Removal

1. NOTE: The stoplamp switch is difficult to remove if the switch plunger is not depressed. A slight rearward force on the brake pedal should be adequate to depress the plunger.

With a light force, pull rearward on the brake pedal, rotate the stoplamp switch 45 degrees clockwise and remove the stoplamp switch.

- Disconnect the stoplamp switch electrical connector.

Installation

NOTICE: It is very important to not press, pull or touch the brake pedal assembly during the installation of the stoplamp switch. Failure to follow these instructions may damage the stoplamp switch.

1. Connect the stoplamp switch electrical connector.

2. Without movement of the brake pedal assembly, install the stoplamp switch and rotate it 45 degrees counterclockwise.
