Adjusting and testing


ADJUSTING THE SWITCH
Once installed, remember to adjust the centre plunger. To do this, push the brake pedal down out of the way, then with long nosed pliers, pull the switch centre plunger down and out further, then gently release the brake pedal with out pulling it up and the switch will ratchet set itself

JOB DONE - NOW CHECK IT
You can check the operation either by reflections or by raising your tailgate as you can then see the high level light whilst you put your foot on the brake
Make a note of just where the brake lights come on, ie how far down did you have to push the pedal? Check the hi level and the low brake lights both illuminate (you may notice one occurs before the other)

NB if you jam your foot under the brake pedal one day then you will reset the switch too high and your brake lights will be permanently ON so now you know how to reset it again, you can deal with it yourself.
