My Brake Light switch is the same.

Hi BabyDriver,

My front breaklight switch shows the same problem as you describe.

It works fine when unscrewded from the front break leaver (breaklight is illuminated until the microswitch button is pressed in)

I don't know what its called but there's a "black plastiic movable barrel type thingy" (technical term) that activates the button when the microswitch is screwed in place. Well mine gets dead stiff so the microswitch button wont release (the break light will not illuminate). To cure the problem I squirt a bit of WD40 or simular and get the black plastiic movable barrel type thingy moving again.

I hope this helps
