Brake Pressure Applied Switch
Brake Pressure Applied Switch
The Brake Pressure Applied switch is a hydraulically-actuated pressure switch that senses brake pressure and provides a back-up to the stoplight switch to deactivate speed control. The switch is totally independent (mechanically and electrically) from the brake lamp switch. The Brake Pressure Applied switch actuates after the Stoplight switch actuates. When the brake pedal is depressed, the switch is open. When the brake pedal is released, the switch is closed. The Brake Pressure Applied switch is located on the brake master cylinder.
