If the electrical circuit has been tested and the stop lamp switch is suspected of being faulty, it can be tested using the following method.
1. Remove the switch from the vehicle. See: Service and Repair/Stop Lamp Switch - Removal
2. With the switch in the released position (plunger extended), use an ohmmeter to test each of the three internal switches as shown. You should
achieve the results as indicated in the figure.
3. Gently push the plunger on the stop lamp switch in until it stops.
4. With the switch in the depressed position (plunger pushed in), use an ohmmeter to test each of the three internal switches as shown. You should
achieve the results as indicated in the figure.
If you do not achieve the results as indicated in both figures, the switch is faulty and must be replaced.
