Stoplamp Switch: Installation

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2011 Ford Taurus. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
NOTE: It is very important to not press, pull or touch the brake pedal assembly during the installation of the stoplamp switch. Failure to follow these instructions may damage the stoplamp switch.
  1. Without movement of the brake pedal assembly, install the stoplamp switch and rotate it 45 degrees counterclockwise.
  2. Connect the stoplamp switch electrical connector.
  3. NOTE: If the stoplamps do not operate correctly, repeat the removal and installation procedure with special attention not to move or touch the brake pedal during installation.
  4. Start the engine and apply the brake pedal several times to make sure the stoplamps operate correctly.
