Pull the rubber boot up on the cable, loosen jam nut, unthread adjuster a couple turns. Put piece of cardboard between brake lever and housing. Remove screws from switch housing, reach in and remove ferrules from cable ends. Spend 20 minutes cussing and drinking beer while trying to find the effin ferrules on the dirty garage floor. Cables pull right out.

That is so funny and so true! Those little brass pains in the a.. that are so slippery and run away when you set them free....
yeah, those stupid things are a PIA! big time! I did a swap for my buddy before we went on a ride, because they're a piece of cake on my '87, boy was I surprised after I lost a BRASS ferrule, and couldn't use a magnet to find it!!!!
