FITTING A NEW STOP LIGHT SWITCH/406

Ifanyboby needs to fit a stop light switch to a 406 you better hire a
contourtionist .ITS A PAIN IN THE BUMHOLE.But I did it eventualy.I managed
it from the right hand side without the need to remove the steering
colum,but I might add my back will need a day or two to recover,also one
or two fingers are a bit chewed,YEA she bit me.HAVE FUN IF YOU NEED
TO....PS the switch was only a fiver from PEUGEOT...WELL DONE PUG

 

I have cured this problem twice without changing the switch, due to its
difficulty in replacing.
1) Fit a spring to return the brake pedal. This resolves wear in the brake
linkage for right hand drive models.
2) Stick a piece of metal under the switch operating teat on the pedal.
Also resolves the previous problem.

SORRY I WOULD RATHER FIT A NEW SWITCH EVERYTIME,RATHER THAN HAVE A
BODGE JOB GO WRONG WHEN THERE IS A BAD DRIVER IN MY REAR VIEW MIRROR

 

Presumably you bodged the keyboard repair - hence upper case all the time.
In newsgroups it is regarded as shouting and impolite.
