Brake Switch: Installation
- Obtain new brake lamp switch. The adjustment lever on the new switch should be at a 45 degree angle from the wiring connector. If the adjustment lever is parallel with the wiring connector, the switch has been pre-set and must be scrapped.
- Connect the wiring harness to the connector on the switch.
- Install the switch in its bracket by aligning the index tab on the switch with the notch in the mounting bracket.
- When the switch body is fully seated in its bracket, rotate the switch clockwise approximately 30 degree to lock the switch into place.
- With the brake pedal in the fully released position, move the adjustment lever on the brake lamp switch from the 45 degree angled non-adjusted position, clockwise as shown, until it is parallel with the wiring connector. The brake lamp switch is now properly adjusted to the vehicle.
- Install the knee blocker.
- Install the silencer pad below the knee blocker.
- Reconnect the negative battery terminal.
- Reinstall the air cleaner cover.
- Check the stop lamps to verify they are operating properly and not staying on when the pedal is in the released position.
- Road test the vehicle to ensure proper operation of the brakes (including ABS) and speed control.
