Graham,

I'm sure that you're right that the pressure switch is going bad.  The
switch is separate from the brake line junction and can be replaced
separately.  I'm pretty sure that Sunbeam Specialties has the switch.
Those pressure switches have a particular dislike for synthetic fluid, so
if you are using a synthetic you can expect the switch to fail again.  Lots
of Tiger owners have given up on the pressure switch and have installed a
switch that's mechanically actuated by the break pedal.  That's your best
bet if you want to run a synthetic.  There was a discussion thread not long
ago in which folks showed how they had installed a mechanical switch.  You
can probably find it in the archive with a little searching.

Oh! Check the connection before pulling the switch... You'll have to bleed
the brakes after installing a new one. I checked mine... one was loose (had
to crimp the connector...).

For whatever reason, the system sucks.  I have tried every type of
electronic switch out there - from the no names to the most expensive
ones.  They simply do not last (I've been Sunbeaming for 40 years now).
And not just with synthetic.  I gave up and built a bracket and mounted a
mechanic switch.  I think someone else has a kit.  I feel strongly that
it's not worth it keeping this part stock - unless you check your brake
lights against a wall or something constantly.

I'm going to add to my post about having to always check that the
brakelights are working - like against the garage wall every time I started
the car.   I will add that the wall is deceiving.  I did checked all the
time too - and against any truck/car behind me at a light that happened to
have chrome on the grille that reflected my brake lights.  I found though
that I did not realize the pressure I put on for the "test" was not the
same lighter touch that I might use while driving where I'd want my lights
to be going on anyway.  That is, I thought my brake lights were working,
but in reality they didn't go on unless I gave a decent pressure to the
pedal.  But, if I am at all touching that pedal, I want the lights on.  So
that's how I set up my mechanical switch - more warning, sooner.  Something
to think about.

Its's the switch, 98% likely.  FWIW, here's what I built to solve the
problem:

A muffler clamp, a bit of aluminum extrusion, and a replacement Jeep brake
light switch did the trick.  Yes, that's a binder clip on the pedal, to
provide a flat surface for the switch to push on.
