Detailed Product Information

Standard Ignition SLS-212 is a brake light switch designed for service work where consistent stoplamp response matters. The construction uses high-grade materials and a durable plastic housing, while the internal contact arrangement is engineered to limit arcing and support longer service life. Copper alloy conductors help maintain strong electrical conductivity, which is important for reliable brake lamp signaling and stable circuit performance. This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.

Vehicle coverage includes Cadillac DeVille, Cadillac Eldorado, Cadillac Seville, Buick Riviera, Cadillac Allante, and Oldsmobile Toronado across the listed model years. The SLS-212 part number is also useful when searching for an OE-style brake light switch replacement for these applications.

Common Problems This Part Can Address

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify connector style, terminal count, and vehicle application before installation. Confirm the brake pedal switch location and compare the original part to the SLS-212 to ensure the housing, connector, and terminal layout match. After installation, test brake lamp operation and confirm the switch activates cleanly with pedal movement.
