Thread: Warning contact on brake master cylinder?

  1. #1

    Warning contact on brake master cylinder?

    Look at the picture, there are two wires with connectors, both has brown wires. The warning contact has only one connector. Is the warning contact un-original? any way to connect and use the one I have?

    thanks

    Looks like one of the posts on the switch is broken/missing. It's a simple ground circuit that activates the brake lights, that's why both wires are brown. looks like you need a new switch

    Actually the switch is not broken, it just has one terminal/connector and a very small rubber cap in the middle protecting a small transparent plastic pin. I guess I will have to buy a new switch.

    Thanks

    Both wires are brown except 1 has a stripe on it used only for the 2 wire sensor. You can use the single post sensor though while NOT using the solid brown wire. To reset the dash warning light simply press the stemmed button on the single post sensor.
