The brake light switch is after the booster so it sees the same pressure that the brakes see. If you have enough pressure to stop the beast then you have enough pressure to activate the switch. Ther

The pressure in that part of the system will be the same - it will just be your leg providing all the pressure instead of having the engine do part of the job for you. The pressure switch can fail bo

Hi Joey, The brake lights should be on the bottom, and the turn signals on the top... so you should first get that sorted out. Maybe you installed or wired the right light assembly upside down? One w

Seems like you have a ground problem or wiring problem in the rear lights. Do you have a wire diagram to follow? See Tiger United if not. http://www.tigersunited.com/resources/wsm/wsmN35.asp The wir

Your brake light switch is NOT a mechanical type linked to a pedal. It is hydraulically actuated by brake line pressure. The switch is located on the multi-junction steel hydraulic line block mounte
