[6pack] PDWA Switch

[Navarrette, Vance]

 	Bill:

	A bolt by itself will not plug the leak. You will need some sort of thread
sealant as well, or perhaps a copper washer under the head of the bolt.
	A straight threaded bolt, by itself, will always leak. You need pipe threads,
or some other sort of setup specifically designed to seal fluids.
	Rebuilding the PDWA is cheap and easy, why not just fix it?

Hi Again,
As I found out is common, my PDWA is leaking brake fluid (Silicone).  I
know the "O" rings are shot inside and should be rebuilt, but has anyone
just plugged the switch opening with a 3/8" bolt?  I know the warning
light won't work, but does that at least solve the problem temporarily?
Thanks,

Bill Couzelis
