Easy installation and function perfect.

I was wondering why my cruise was not working all of the time and my trailer brakes were acting up. Truck finally threw an engine code and I tried this. 2008 gmc 2500 duramax

GM Genuine OEM Part - Brake Light Switch..works well & good pricec

This product arrived in an ACDELCO parts package as described by the seller. I utilized Prime Shipping, so it showed up quick. As others have described, the product is tricky to install based on its location, but was easily accomplished taking my time in 30 min or less. Everyone complains about the retaining clip, so here's my take on removing it. 1) Remove the bolt in the center of the retaining clip and set it aside 2) Pry the center portion of the clip (the part that was around the bolt) away from the switch with a slight upward pressure until the center portion of the clip is resting on the metal surface where the bolt was screwed in (this will seem as if you are bending the clip, but this is necessary for removal. 3) With the center portion of the clip clear of the bolt base use a flat screwdriver to push the clip up until it stops, then pull the clip off. Install in reverse order. There is a slot in the clip that is larger at the base which locks the pin in place around the base of the bolt. The clip cannot be removed until it is pushed upward and pulled away. I found the switch location easy to see if you kneel down outside the vehicle and locate the switch on the diagonal at the top of the brake pedal. Study the switch for a few seconds and you'll see it's not that difficult to remove. Cruise control works as it should after install.

Genuine part. Installed easily.

There are NO instructions included. Go find the right youtube videos and pay particular attn to the order of removal and replacement. If you do that, this is a very fast fix for cruise that lights up on the steering wheel, but will not actually engage or illuminate on the instrument cluster.

My cruise control was not working periodically. Sometimes I would drive and it would turn on just fine, other times I would press on the button and nothing. To validate that the Stoplight Switch was the problem, I was driving and the cruise control would not turn on. I pulled up on the brake with my foot and then tried the cruise control. It seemed to work fine. Duplicated this a couple of times and so I went ahead and order a new switch. Installation was a pain. The bolt was easy enough to remove. The problem was the clip was difficult to remove. Putting on the new switch and then trying to get the clip back on, was again even more difficult to get it to snap back on to place. It eventually snapped back on and I then screwed back on the bolt. Do not over tighten the bolt. After everything was put back together, the cruise control is working and I have not had any issues. This switch tends to go bad frequently. In the past I have had the mechanic replace it. If your cruise control works sometimes, you might try checking the stoplight switch.

Simple fix Only took a few mins to replace * 1 bolt (10mm) * 1 clip (use a flathead screwdriver) (2009 silverado) Abs/traction lights were off & on for 2 years, finally decided to fix. I gave the truck a test run through town, dash lights are off (I will update if they come back on after first road trip) 👌

Es original y kedo perfecto

Bought this to replace my old switch on my 07 Avalanche, which was not disengaging fully (this affected my trailer brake controller in such a way that it wouldn't disengage without me slapping the brake pedal several times to force it to disengage). Also my cruise control wouldn't work because it thought my brake pedal was engaged . It took some twisting & discomfort on my old body, but after perhaps 45 minutes the new switch was in place and since then, all works perfectly. I would recommend.

Muy buen producto y fácil de instalar, me tomo 5 minutos cambiarlo en mi tahoe 2007 y solucione 5 problemas a la vez, desaparecieron las fallas de ABS y sistemas de estabilización que aparecían en el tablero, también volvió a funcionar el cruce control y sobre todo el de que a veces se ponía muy dura la palanca de cambios

This switch is an exact replacement for the AC Delco brake switch on my 2007 New Body GMC Sierra 1500. I began having problems with the cruise control not engaging, and discovered the well known problem of this switch being the culprit. I was able to easily remove and disassemble the original switch, and found the small copper spring contacts inside the switch had sagged, and were no longer allowing the switch to open and close properly. I bent the contacts slightly to re-tension them and the switch is working properly again. While doing this repair I ordered this inexpensive replacement switch so if I lose my cruise control again, rather than repair a second time I will simply replace it with this new switch and be good for another 12 years.

My cruise control was not functioning and I had intermittent warning lights for "stabilitrack and ABS" on my 2010 GMC Sierra. Once this break switch was installed (20min and Im not a mechanic) all my dash lights are off and my cruise control works like the day I bought the truck. Great product simple install. I recommend
