Actually I did a search on Bing for "rear brake pressure switch" and I got a link to this thread. Perfect too, just what I needed.

Yeah that is the only way I find things here too.
Kinda makes me wonder why they have a search function when it works so poorly.

You may be surprised that the new one may not work either. Just had this experience and it turned out when I then replaced my rear brake pads it began working. Guess the line pressure was low with the over extended caliper on the worn brakes.

I had replaced it over the winter and had to bleed out the system at the time because replacing it allows air back into the lines.

Well, the reason I am replacing it is because mine failed just as I approached a stop sign. The switch failed at the seal and all of my brake fluid hit the ground and I went right through the sign with no rear brakes!
