Jul 21st, 2025 | | | | Joined: Aug 2006 Posts: 129 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Aug 2006 Posts: 129 | Is the stop light switch different on the larger '39-46 1-1/2 Ton Trucks? I am working on a 1940 WB 1-1/2 Ton and it does not have a pressure operated switch on the master cylinder like the pickups. What do they use or has someone changed this truck? | | | | | Joined: Sep 2006 Posts: 1,972 Big Bolt Forum Co-moderator | | Big Bolt Forum Co-moderator Joined: Sep 2006 Posts: 1,972 | On an AD it is actuated by the brake pedal. Look on the firewall and see if there is a switch with an arm that gets pushed down by the brake pedal. If there isn't one there, see if there are two small holes for mounting a switch. Someone who knows a lot more than me should be posting soon.

I have a 41 and it uses a swing arm style. It is wired so when the pedal is up, the switch is closed.
