Kube what store did you buy it from. I’ve heard not so good things on Napa and I think the new one I bought is no good too. Thx…..

Nope, just bad switches right out of the boxes.

Re: '40 brake lamp switch / master cylinder issue?
I noticed that ford cortina about 1967 uses a 1/8 npt switch. Rockauto carry them. They have spade terminals rather than round but might represent something worth trying. One brand has a hex body which might represent a different manufacturer than the heavily pressed body of the replacement early ford type switches. I have had some failures too and have adapted mech switches.

Re: '40 brake lamp switch / master cylinder issue?
I with you Mart. I hate to crossbreed stuff as some of you know, but the mechanical switch that GM used on all the old five window (47 - 54) pickups works very well on my 41 pickup under the floor and out of sight for the most part. Having bright good working is a huge safety factor so this seemed acceptable to me as I drive mine every chance I get. The added bonus is you can flash your brake lights without actually applying the brakes. Tim
