Brian,
Yes, I've had the same problem. About every 5,000 to 7,000 miles (6 to 12
months) and the switch only works when you really jam the brakes. Tried
several replacements over the last 3 years and all seem to do the same thing.
I believe there may be an
American counterpart from 60's era cars, but I haven't researched it.
I know there were some people on the list that worked for some of the bigger
auto parts chains - anybody mind looking on the shelf for another brand switch?
Cheers!
