Sprinter 3500 V6-3.0L DSL Turbo VIN 45 (2007)
Brake Light Switch: Adjustments
BRAKE LAMP SWITCH
WARNING: To avoid serious or fatal injury on vehicles equipped with airbags, disable the supplemental restraint system before attempting
any steering wheel, steering column, airbag, seat belt tensioner, impact sensor, or instrument panel component diagnosis or service. Disconnect
and isolate the battery negative (ground) cable, then wait two minutes for the system capacitor to discharge before performing further
diagnosis or service. This is the only sure way to disable the supplemental restraint system. Failure to take the proper precautions could result
in accidental airbag deployment.
1. Disconnect and isolate the battery negative cable.
2. Depress and hold the brake pedal in the depressed position.
3. Pull the brake lamp switch plunger all the way out of the switch housing to its fully extended position.
NOTE: Do not pull the brake pedal upwards as this will adjust the switch plunger to an incorrect position. The switch is properly adjusted when
the switch plunger is just contacting (no gap) the brake pedal arm with the pedal in the relaxed (released) position.
4. Release the brake pedal from its depressed position to automatically adjust the brake lamp switch plunger.
5. Reconnect the battery negative cable.
