Questions: I have the brake switch connected to the master cylinder and my lines are bleed already and wires are connected but my brake light won’t turn on when I push down on the brake pedal , is there something I missed or something that I can do to make them work ?
Question By: Brandon on Jun 20 2019 11:50 PM
I would double check you are getting power and a good ground to your switch.

Questions: The brake switch for my 47CJ 2A is attached to the floor and visible when the cover plate is removed. It doesn't attach to the master cylinder and appears to operate off the side of the brake pedal. Is this a modification or was another type available? I had the master cylinder replaced and it didn't have the screw in open for the switch.
Thanks,
Ken

Question By: Jesse on Sep 6 2016 12:58 AM
We sell complete wiring harnesses or honestly your local Napa would have just the wiring ends if that's all you need.

Questions: I just purchased a new master cylinder from Kaiser Willy for a 1958 Willies Jeep. But the Brake Light Switch I have does not fit (switch fitting is way smaller than whats required for the master cylinder. Does the brake light switch listed above (BRAKE LIGHT SWITCH FITS 46-66 JEEP & WILLYS) mate directly to the master cylinder, or is an adapter required? Thanks. TJJ
Question By: Tom J on Feb 8 2014 12:00 AM
The master cylinder and brake light switch are both correct. Sounds like you are missing the outlet bolt part number: 637605.

Questions: I just replaced the master cylinder & brake light switch. The male plug in side of my brake light switch is smaller how can I get some larger connectors to fit onto my wiring to fit this switch.
Question By: Jan on May 12 2014 12:00 AM
This switch is just like original so you had an unoriginal one in there if its any different and you had one of the vehicles listed above. Good news is that is a common NAPA item for the wiring connectors.

Questions: I've replaced the master cylinder and the brake lights do not function. I'm guessing I installed this switch incorrectly (on the new cylinder without any fluid). What is the correct proceedure?
Question By: Anonymous on Jul 17 2013 12:00 AM
It is a pressure switch so it will need fluid and your brakes bled to work properly.
