Detailed Description Of Brake Light Switch:

• Switch Types
  The most common types are plunger switches and barrel switches. Plunger switches are mounted at the bottom of the brake pedal arm, where the plunger gets depressed when the pedal is pressed down.

• Switch Construction
  Brake light switches are typically made of plastic housing containing metal contacts. When the plunger is pressed, it causes the metal contacts to close the circuit.

• Adjustment
  Some brake light switches have adjustment mechanisms to set the pedal height at which the switch activates. This allows compensating for brake lining wear.

• Switch Ratings
  Brake light switches are rated for certain electrical loads based on the vehicle's wiring system. Exceeding the rated amperage can cause premature switch failure.

• Failure Modes
  Common failures include sticking plungers, broken springs, corroded contacts and wiring issues causing intermittent operation or no brake light function.

• Testing
  Mechanics use brake switch test lights or multimeters to verify brake light switch operation by monitoring when circuit opens/closes while working the pedal.

• Replacement
  Brake light switches are inexpensive components that get replaced if found faulty during diagnosis to ensure proper brake light operation.
