Hi managed to take pics in between rain DOH it has not rained here for a couple of weeks .
The black line marks a very small groove in the shaft , its the centre line.
When pressure is dropped on one side of the piston [ shaft ] it moves to that side and the nylon plunger drops into a depression actuating the switch and visa versa . You must remove the switch when you bleed the brakes as the piston centralises and could break off the end of the nylon plunger. I have known this to happen once.
here are the pics.
Now my alternator has died [ not the regulator ] probable the diodes . got to wait for the rain to stop again Oh Well.
Regards
Mike B
