    Follow up on this switch. Made a call to our host explaining the switch problems, sent the old ones back and in a flash had a original Land Rover part in hand. Thats what i call good service.

    I have had your exact experience with multiple brake light switches, both Genuine and aftermarket. Issue I've noticed is with the "plunger"; nothing wrong electrically. If I remove the switch, exercise the plunger and test, it starts working fine. But replace it in the brake tower, adjust it properly and it regularly stops working again in a matter of just a few trips. Frustrating. Is this similar to anybody else's findings?

    Pretty good performance from the old 2.25 petrol! Then again, she does have the Fairey overdrive...
