<div dir="auto">Ignore the warning. They have to put that in there because if you mix Dot 5 and 3/4 you get sludge. In this litigious society they put that in to avoid being sued. You are fine.

<div>Subject: [TR] Silicone Brake Fluid Tolerant Stoplight Switches? </div>
<div><br>
</div>
</div>
<font size="2"><span style="font-size:10pt;">
<div class="PlainText">The hydraulically operated stoplight switch on my TR3 has once again failed. And yes, I am using silicone brake fluid. When sourcing a replacement from NAPA (SL147), it came with a warning note that it is not approved for use with Silicone
Brake Fluids. That was for a switch with spade connectors. <br>
<br>
The identical switch with screw connectors (SL144) has no such note. But, the folks at NAPA weren’t able to provide any reassurance that that one would any more silicone tolerant.
<br>
<br>
Is anyone aware of an updated hydraulically operated stoplight switch that is silicone brake fluid tolerant?<br>
<br>
