I found that my brake lights were intermittent and the switch was the problem. Ordered a new one from thevolvosite, FAE made in Spain, OK I guess. Removed the knee bolster and loosened the nut on the switch that is on the plunger end of the switch and pulled it out to where I could see it by the wires. I figure it is going to be a B---h to put the new one in the same place. Since my 240 does not have cruise control but does have the bracket for the cruise cutout switch I would use it to install the brake light switch. The hole in the bracket is larger than the switch so I used two fender washers to take up the difference and the wires are long enough to reach the cruise bracket easily. Hope this helps someone out.
