Re: [Chrysler300] Harley davidson hydraulic brake lite switch

[Kraus300@xxxxxxxxxxx]

My C's switch went 12 years on silicone fluid with no issues.

With the dual master the switch has now moved inside the car. It is very simple swap on the C. There's a steering column bracket right above the brake pedal. Its a perfect place to bolt an "L" shaped bracket and new style switch. In think I used the stop switch off a 67 or 68 Chrysler product. 
I just moved the stop switch on my 57 Dodge yesterday. No convenient bracket on that car but a 2 1/2" worm drive hose clamp holds the bracket and switch on the column just fine.

When i switch to silicon fluid 8 years ago the first thing that went out 
was the brake light switch !! A friend of mine, after switching to 
silicon had the same problem. I read also on other forum or mailing 
lists that it's a common problem . Even Bernbaum (who sells bk. 
switch..) agrees !!
So i installed a mechanical microswitch on the brake pedal frame and all 
is fine.
