Brake Light Switch Connector Plug (2 Terminals) – 111-945-525

The 111-945-525 is an essential small part for a professional-grade electrical restoration. Many vintage Volkswagens suffer from flickering or non-functional brake lights because the original connectors have become brittle, cracked, or are missing entirely, leaving bare wires exposed to the humid environment under the chassis. Using this factory-correct connector plug ensures that your safety lighting remains operational and your wiring harness looks as clean as it did when it left the assembly line.

This connector is a universal fit for most Type 1, Type 2, and Type 3 models utilizing a 2-prong master cylinder switch.

Installation & Maintenance Tips

  • Use New Terminals: For the best results, crimp new female spade connectors onto your wires before sliding them into the 111-945-525 housing. This ensures the best possible electrical contact.

  • Dielectric Grease: Apply a small dab of dielectric grease to the switch terminals before sliding the plug on. This adds an extra layer of protection against moisture and prevents future oxidation.

  • Check Your Switch: If you have a later model with a 3-terminal switch (often used for brake failure warning lights), this 2-terminal plug will not fit. Always verify the number of prongs on your master cylinder switch before ordering.
