I was disappointed with the amount of pressure it took to get my brake lights
come on. I did not have to depress the pedal all the way, But the pedal
pressure needed to START braking was not enough to turn on the brake lights. A
little added pressure is needed to get the lights on. It's slight bit of pressure,
but the point is I'm braking and the lights aren't on yet.

SO, I replaced the switches. And the lights come on exactly like they did
before the replacement. Now they're not so bad that the pedal must be fully
depressed. But I'd like them to come on when I just about touch the pedal as
opposed AFTER the braking process has started. Just makes more sense of course.
heck, It'd be safer if they came on when I thought about the brakes. Maybe a chip
in my head is the best solution. (I should say ANOTHER chip in addition to the
one the government has put in there;)

In summation, in my opinion the pressure needed to illuminate the brake
lights should be lower. Does anyone else suffer from this gremlin, or is it just my
bus?

depressed, which is not a very good thing, and invites a rear end collision.
