One of the problems experience by some was the shuttle flicking across when trying to bleed the brakes caused by stomping on the brake pedal instead of applying a regulated pressure.</span></div><div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1535067656517_25930"><span><br></span></div><div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1535067656517_25930"><span>Guy R Day</span></div><div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1535067656517_25930"><span> </span></div> <div class="qtdSeparateBR"><br><br></div><div class="yahoo_quoted" style="display: block;"> <div style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Helvetica, Arial, Lucida Grande, sans-serif; font-size: 16px;"> <div style="font-family: HelveticaNeue, Helvetica Neue, Helvetica, Arial, Lucida Grande, Sans-Serif; font-size: 16px;"> <div dir="ltr"><font size="2" face="Arial"> On Thursday, 23 August 2018, 17:41, bmwwxman--- via Spridgets <spridgets@autox.team.net> wrote:<br></font></div> <br><br> <div class="y_msg_container"><div id="yiv1540612846">

on the 4 way brake failure switch. I know there is a little shuttle inside the housing but not sure how to set it up properly as I connect the 5 hydraulic brake lines to it. Nothing useful that I can find in Bentley or my Haynes manual. Also, this switch appears to be different than some of the ones shown in the manuals.

I got a new one from Vickey Brit as the old one was awfully ragged with a lot of cracked insulation. The wiring diagram in my Bentley manual doesn't seem to look anything like the color codes on the harness.
