My buddy's got a '97 2 door hoe and it needs a brake switch put in it. I can see the switch up in the pedal box and from the research I've done, everybody says it just takes 10min to replace but none of them elaborate on how to do it. I cannot for the life of me figure out how to get to it, the steering column is in the way as well as the pedal box.
The problem is, there's a clip that holds the pedal rod in the switch and that has to come off first. There's a little window between the pedal box and steering column that you can see through from the passenger side. I can see the clip, but I can't get a tool in there to get it off. Plus I've never seen a clip like that in my life so I'm not sure how it works either.
Any tips/tricks? I'm almost to the point of pulling the column out of the truck to do it. That's the only way I can see at this point
