My dash park brake light was staying on all the time. I had tightened the lever, which was a bit loose, but it still stayed on all the time. The steel spring on top was going up and down so figured the switch was stuck, played around with it a bit but stayed stuck. Got a replacement from my dealer and replaced it. First I took off the black fuse box. Then I tried to unscrew the micro switch, no way was it coming off. :mad: So then took the shiny plate that the micro switch was screwed through by removing the two bolts holding the plate on. Once the plate came off I saw why the micro switch was not coming off. :thumbsup: The two long skinny bolts through the micro switch had nuts on the back. :p Once I could grab the nuts then I could unscrew the bolts holding the micro switch to the shinny plate. Got it back together and it is working properly. :D

Sounds like you have the problem fixed for sure.. I sent you an E- Mail as
requested.. Doesn't take much to knock them out of adjustment or have dirt get into them and screw them up. The installation on the CK30 HST is a little different then your tractor but works the same ...
