tr3a brake switch whereabouts?


Recommended Posts

Hello 

Simple question,   working on the electrics, but where is the brake switch?    Right down on the chassis behind the front wheel?

 

Thanks

Dave

Thanks Stuart.

 

Very handy. Its not working anyway.   I think I'll put an electric switch in.   While I am at it,    is the dual master cylinder (brake and clutch)   worth keeping?  Or do people change it to a "normal"   two cylinder system?

 

Regards

Dave

Hydraulic brake light switch often replaced with mechanical type like this.  No need to remove the old one, just re- route the wires.

Thanks Bob,

That's what I will do.   I saw a link in an earlier post to a supplier of the switch,   and have ordered it.

You would need to change the mounting bracket for the masters as well if you wanted to go down the route of changing to individual supplied masters. Standard tank is OK as long as the top seal is good.
