'91 Ranger Brake light switch not working
 

So, if I move he switch up or down my brake lights come on. When I depress the pedal, nothing. I can't for the life of me find a photo, diagram, video, nothing that shows me this switch in pace to see if I am missing something. PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Welcome to the forum

Full size Ford trucks use the same brake switch set up

Video here:

Thank you, I'll check again. The issue is that the original switch quit working so, easy fix, replace the switch. As I was pulling to old switch out my wife was telling me that the brake light flickered. I figured since I had it apart I'd go ahead and replace the switch but still had the same issue, I can move the switch up or down and it activates the brake lights but when I depress the pedal I get nothing. I thought that there was a piece missing form the assembly but there isn't based on what I saw in the video.

Any other suggestions?

So, I have come to the conclusion that the rod from the pedal to the vacuum assist is bad, I am going to replace the vacuum assist soon to see if this fixes it. I did install the switch correctly. When I depress the brake pedal the switch won't activate. But, when I push the switch up or down it activates the brake lights. I did try flipping the rod over but in doing so I did something to the vacuum assist cylinder...

Thanks, Pete
