Art,

It's on the 5-way brake connection. This is mounted on the frame just inside
the passenger front wheel. The main feed pipe from the MC goes into the top.
It then sends pipes out to the rear, left front, and right front brakes. The
last opening -- which points towards the front of the car, has the pressure
operated brake switch (with two electrical leads that I believe can attach
either way).
