Is the brake light switch screwed into a fitting in the hydraulic brake
line? That is how it is on my MGA.
I found these switches problematic. Some claim DOT 5 (synthetic) brake fluid
is the culprit. I have not found a long lasting switch. I just replace it
every couple of years. If you swap it quickly, you'll lose little brake
fluid and no air will enter the system (thus no need to bleed).
