I wonder what symptoms you had with your switch? Mine works on first braking but as plunger moves to furthest out no brak lights. I jumped contacts so I know it must be the switch.It is the $49.95 one from Bratton's and has yet to get me out of the garage.Thinking about one of those Ampco NORS ones on Ebay now and then next if Bratton's won't help.Trouble is I have had the switch for year now and just hooked it up.
