Can you identify this brake switch?
It came off with a 22mm socket, although there was a slight amount of wobble so I suspect it is imperial. It has the number 5155 on the face and the
M10 replacement I bought doesn't fit, it starts for about a thread and then binds up. Any ideas what I should be getting?

i bought one along time ago for mu project but went for a motorbike style switch with a double babjo fitting, m10 thread. Prob 7/8" size.
I think it is a morris minor one, not 100% sure as t was years ago.

as mentioned they are a taper thread. you should get about 3 turns before they go tight then you need to use a socket.
