PARKING BRAKE SWITCH REMOVAL
It appears I need to remove the flip up guard and knob from my flip type parking brake switch in order to remove it from panel to gain access to a leaking tag switch. Anybody have any instructions?

Joel,
There’s a pin you remove to get the knob off.

Joel,
I make sure that I have a sharpie and a roll of masking tape with me.
It never hurts to number and diagram the air lines as you may find that there are lots of lines/tees/etc. coming off that parking brake valve and seldom will you ever see an excess of air line to allow you to move the valve out of your way..
Not sure about Prevost’s but there sure are lots of lines on WL’s.

TOM: Could you be a bit more specific, please.

There is a small pin through the base of the flip cover that you need to drive out in order to pull it off. It’s actually easier than it sounds.
Just be real careful not to lose that pin once you get it out…..

I tried to take a picture Joel, but it’s too fuzzy. Like Paul said, there is a small drift pin under the knob you just push out and the knob comes off.
