Default Brake pressure switch

Hi Guy,

I can not remember the website I used to use for exploded diagrams and part codes, so can someone tell me the part code for the brake pressure switch for a 1982 Coupe GT please. I need to get one as mine has died.

Plus can anyone tell me how easy they are to change?

That helped, got the new pressure switch, installed - still no lights

I know the switch is where the problem is because if I connect the 2 plugs together the lights work.

All I did was fit the new pressure switch in the brake master cylinder...... did not work at first then started working. Can only assume it takes some time for oil to fill the littler pressure hole.
