How To adjust Brake Light Pedal Switch.

If you are like me and your car came from the factory w/ too much play between Braking, and the light coming on, and does not want to waste time going to a dealer, making an appointment, and actually showing up for an appointment,here is how to adjust the switch:
1. Push driver seat all the way back.
2. Take flashlight and look at top of brake pedal to find brake light switch.
3. The switch will rotate about 1/4 turn. turn it and then you can move the switch up and down on it's track.
4. Adjust and then turn switch back 1/4 turn to lock in place.
5. Check with mirror that switch is activating with the desired pressure on brake pedal.

I decided not to list clockwise/counterclockwise, cause you will only get confused working upside down. If anyone actually needs pics, then either you need to take it in for servicing, or you just really love pics for the hell of it.

I will post pics if needed.

Great post!

Also, do you know how to adjust the e-brake itself? For some reason mine engages super high. Feels really loose.
