Hey all, I've been having terrible luck with my brake switch. I bought a new one that came with a C-clip thinking my old switch was trash. I put the new one in till it was snug to the brake pedal and then locked it with the c-clip. Took the truck for a drive and came back and my tail lights were on. The truck was off as I was about ready to eat. I don't know if that's the design of the truck, but I went into the cab, pulled the brake pedal forward and the lights went off. I did bend the bracket towards the pedal some but eventually the sensor popped back out stripping the plastic threads.

Anyone else have this problem, just wondering if there is a better design.

 

Try this.

Yeah that's what I did! I'm going to get some rubber hose like stated and see if that helps. I'm afraid to clamp down on it because it's only plastic.

Thanks!

 

the hose clamp trick works great you might have to tweek the braket to get the switch in the right position
