opb master cylinder warning switch
jamrogers - 27/3/08 at 01:02 PM

Has anyone fitted a balance bar and master cylinders from OPB? If so what did you do for a brake fluid level sensor - as far as i can tell their reservoir doesn't contain a float switch....

can't really see how you can detect fluid level without a sensor; maybe some sort of sensor in the pressure line?

no u need a float switch in the reservoir for the sva.... just wondered what other people used....

Check out the rally design site or Car builder solutions who do a separate switch .

I used a Sierra cap on my master cylinder.
