Default Re: Brake Pressure Switch

It is absolutely, positively, 100% legal. I showed the whole setup to Div. 1 tech man Ryck Campbell last year, or maybe the year before.

There seems to be a persistent belief that adjusting the pressure can act as a delay. Low pressure can indeed delay the rev-limiting function shut off, but the wheels will start turning as soon as the brake pressure gets below a certain point, regardless of whether the switch is still closed. The point of doing this is to get the 2 step switch open quickly and consistently, which requires getting the switch off before the wheels turn.

Robert- I'll get the part number when I get back to the garage this weekend.
