Do I need a special plug or can I just run off of one or all these conections?

If I recall correctly it just connects the two outer contacts. You can check by measuring resistance on the two and pressing the button on top.

If you dont have the Ford plug you should be able to get female spade connectors to fit.

^^^ 4.7 mm spades will fit.

it has been posted before so search; if you struggle I cna take a look.

but from memory, two of the contacts are common - it allows you to wire the handbrake switch to the cap.

the purple circles are the 3 terminals on the cap. you need to figure out what is connected to what! Rescued attachment brake_sw.JPG
