Hi, it seems that my brake pressure switch has given up the ghost on me. It seems there's a large nut at the bottom of the junction, is this what I need to go for to replace the switch? There looks like a cut O-ring too right before the switch terminals. It looks a tight fit as part of the wiring loom running underneath it. Can I expect some serious fluid leakage?
I know that the workshop manual states bleeding the fluid on all four corners and a refresh.
I'm a bit wary of messing with the brakes and know that the rear bleed nipples are a pain to get to. The MOT is due in a few weeks, I was going to have a brake fluid refresh done as part of pre-MOT 'service'. I can jerry rig a manual switch to get me there.
Is it worth holding fire and getting the lot done at the garage as long as the replacement switch doesn't take too long in labour costs?
Cheers.
