Brake pedal switch????
I'm getting ready to replace the old factory brake switch for a new 2 position brake switch "required" when running the 700R4. I havent found any other threads showing this install and it looks like a real pain in the a$$ to get to.
Does anyone have any tips/advice for getting the old one out?! pics/links to another thread would be cool too!

Re: Brake pedal switch????
This is the brake switch I installed for my 4L60E. It was easy to install. Remove the old one, hook up your wires as per the diagram and install. Tight quarters to work in. I had to remove the bolt for brake pedal to get my fingers in there.

Just drop the e-brake handle(4 bolts) then the lower column bracket(4 bolts) The switch is mounted to the bracket. I did this is mine and it made adjusting the switch to the correct depth alot easier. You'll need to use the two nuts from your original switch, too.

Re: Brake pedal switch????
I used a late 80's brake light switch. I also used needle nose pliers to put the wires on the switch after it was installed. No problems..
