Priming brake light switch

[Paul Heuer <pheuer@earthlink.net>]

Hi all,
I also have brake light problems on my car. I've bought a new switch 
from SS, and my Father will install it shortly (I'm away from the car at 
present).

I thought it was a 'swap switch and bleed brakes' process, until I read 
a post that said 'prime the switch'. Why? Does this mean you don't need 
to bleed the brakes if you prime the switch? How does one prime it?

So many questions...
Cheers,
Paul.
