I'm so glad this thread exists. I just ordered the part from O'Reilly, should arrive in a couple hours, then I get to install it in 22°F temps! Just fired-up the buddy heater!

[UPDATE] OK, I replaced the switch. Easy enough, once I wedged my fat-self underneath the steering wheel. But... it didn't start. It started maybe 30min later after I did my normal "turn key to ON position, cycle the gear shift lever a few time, & turn key to START position." At least I can rule out the brake light switch now, but what's the next step now?
What does No start entail? No Crank? No Start? No Clicking?
You might start a new thread ... "won't start" should not be affected by the brake switch at all.

You shouldn't have to "cycle" the gear shift lever ... unless the contacts in the Shift Lever Assembly (SLA) or the park/neutral switch in the transmission isn't working properly. (there is a thread or two about that latter hidden switch)

Carry on.
