Re: D.O.T. 3-4 vs. D.O.T. 5 for a '56 Patrician

I converted to Dot5 when I was redoing the 400. The brake light switch went out and I put a new one in. It went bad also. I cut it open and saw the fluid had gotten beyond the rubber seal and the contacts were burnt so bad they no longer made contact and the switch just could not work. I put in a GM dual mechanical switch. It shuts off the TL when it activates the brake lights.
Problem solved for around $10.,00.
