BRAKELIGHT Switch

NOTE: Adjust brakelight switch and cruise control release at same time. Adjustment procedures for brakelight switch and cruise control release are identical.

Insert brakelight switch into retainer until switch body is seated onto retainer. Pull brake pedal upward against internal pedal stop. Turn switch 90 degrees clockwise in order to lock switch into position. Switch is now adjusted. Ensure brakelights do not stay on with brake pedal released. Brakelight switch should open at 0-.078" (0-2.0 mm) of brake pedal travel, measured at centerline of brake pedal pad. Inspect brakelights for proper operation.
