Subject: Re: [Healeys] brake light switch
Frank, I recently fitted a small micro switch and a relay (a micro switch
cannot accomodate the high current of the brake lights) to overcome the
problem of the hydraulic switch acting far too late. I can send you some
pictures if you like.

Has anyone found a substitute for the brake light pressure switch so that
the
brake lights come on at a lower pressure or found an easy way to mount a
position switch on the brake pedal itself like most cars have? It takes
a
fairly good stomp on the brake pedal to get the pressure switch to light
up
the brake lights. This is the second switch I've put in over the years,
but I
don't think its a bad switch; I think its a design 'feature'. I've
followed
other Healeys with the same obervation that a friend of mine had following
me
this morning; the brake lights don't come on until very late and only if
its a
fairly firm stop. Tired of people almost running into me.
thanks,
