It all depends on the type of vehicle. Most of them are as follows. Disconnect the wires on the back of the switch, loosen the lock nut on the switch, unscrew the switch from the bracket. Reverse the order for switch installation. Adjust the switch by screwing the switch in until it contacts the pedal and turns off the brake lights, then tighten the lock nut. That's about all there is to it.
