My brakes light switch (midget hydraulic) has stopped working , can they be fixed /cleaned , or is a replacement needed?

It was new when I built the car but probably seized through lack of use..........

Sounds like a new one to me - they are a sealed unit

Strange they are generally 99.99999999% reliable much more so than pedal operated switches.

I must be unlucky to many decimal places!!

0.00000000001%

poke a matchstick up the hole if its jamed,otherwise get a new one

It's only the nut isn't it? Shouldn't be too much...

I bet that's your answer to everything . Is it facing up or down, not got air in there have you?

this used to happen on some of the rear brakes on motorbikes,at a stand still try pressing hard on your brake pedal a few times
