Detailed Description
Standard Ignition SLS-122 is engineered as a replacement brake light switch for vehicles that rely on accurate stop lamp activation from the pedal switch circuit. The design uses high-grade materials, including copper alloy conductors and a durable housing construction, to maintain stable electrical transfer and long service life. For technicians servicing a 1978-1980 Ford Fiesta or a 1971-1977 Mercury Capri, this SLS-122 switch provides a direct-fit solution for restoring brake lamp function. This part cross-references Standard Motor Products (e.g., S719, SL301) for the same application.
What It Helps Fix
- Brake lights that do not illuminate when the pedal is pressed
- Intermittent stop lamp operation
- Electrical switching issues at the brake pedal circuit
- Arcing-related contact wear inside the switch
- Poor conductivity caused by worn internal switch components
Installation Notes and Tips
Verify connector style, terminal layout, and vehicle application before installation. The SLS-122 uses a female connector and male blade terminals, so matching the existing harness and switch interface is important for proper fitment. Confirm brake pedal switch adjustment and test stop lamp operation after installation on Ford Fiesta and Mercury Capri vehicles.
Quality Assurance
Standard Ignition manufactures this brake light switch with complete quality control from component production through final assembly. Each SLS-122 unit is tested to confirm mechanical action and electrical switching performance before release.
