- Pressure switch added to brake circuit
- Micro switch connected to brake lever
I've chosen the later route - I don't think there's a right or wrong way however.
So I've used a small switch from CBS and constructed a bracket attached to the pedal box.
The bracket prevents the switch from rotating and is strong enough to resist knocks but is well out of reach of your foot on the brake pedal.
When the assembly is fitted to the car - I found that the lever did not fully return to make contact with the switch - so the brake lights were permanently on. I adjusted this by adding a clip to the brake lever to make up the gap.
With this arrangement, the lightest touch on the pedal gets the lights on.
