Re: [Chrysler300] silicon brake switch problems

["Terry & Andree Hoeman" <tehoema@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

went out and snooped some more.   They had gone out since yesterday and when 
brake pedal hit they stayed on so must be sticking somewhere.  Don't relish 
opening the affair up but---  Wonder if it will be the rod sticking in the 
seal in the MC or something in the booster.  Neither seems likely actually 
but will know more one of these days.  will check fit on the brake rod first 
though just in case.
