- Connect the stoplamp switch electrical connector.
- Start the engine and apply the brake pedal several times to make sure the stoplamps operate correctly.
NOTE:
If the stoplamps do not operate correctly, repeat the removal and installation procedure with special attention to not move or touch the brake pedal during installation.
