Try opening the bleed nipple that's at the back of the caliper. It still will take a little force to move the pistons back because the seals hold them pretty tight, but at least you won't be fightin

There's really no room between the switch and transmission cover, but I was able to check the switch on mine from underneath. It sticks out from the back of the transmissionn cover on the driver sid

Thanks for the explaination, Dave. I only knew it had "Dielectric Tune-Up Grease" on the tube and you use it to keep electrical connections good. I thought it had conductive properties of somekind, b

It's not too hard to do, Sean. You'll need to take the chrome ring and glass off, then unscrew the two screws at the back of the speedo. This will allow the whole mechanism to come out through the fr
