Brake Light Switch - 1986 vintage GV

September 29, 2017, 11:04:04 am

I am having an issue with my brake lights.  They work, but only when I push the brake pedal all the way to the floor.  I am thinking I may have an issue with my brake light switch but not 100% positive.  The Oshkosh owners manual says there are 2, but I am only able to locate 1 on the steering box right below the brake pedal underneath the coach.  Can anyone tell me where the other is located? Also If anyone thinks it may be something besides the switch please let me know and I will check that out as well.

Thanks,
Mike T.

There should be 2 switches on the brake treadle valve which is mounted directly below the brake pedal. I believe they are mounted on the side facing out when you look at the valve, but could be mounted to the front. They are round with 2 wires to each.
