Tridon Stop Light Switch TBS005 M10 X 1.25 Normally Closed

The Tridon Stop Light Switch, part number TBS005, is an auto electrical switch sold each and identified with a M10 x 1.25 thread and 14 mm spanner size. It uses a normally closed circuit, so the switching action needs to suit the vehicle’s original stop light switch arrangement before fitting.

This is a brake light switch rather than a universal electrical accessory, so the main checks are the thread size, spanner size and circuit type. Those details matter because a M10 x 1.25 switch with a normally closed circuit will not suit every brake pedal or hydraulic switch application.

Tridon lists this item with a two-year warranty and describes it as a stop light switch in the auto elec accessories group. If you are replacing a worn switch, comparing the part number TBS005 and the physical thread details is the most reliable place to start.

Fitment references supplied for this part include Holden Apollo and Nova, Honda Civic and CR-V, Lexus IS, and a range of Toyota applications such as Avalon, Camry, Celica, Coaster, Corolla, Corolla Levin, Echo, Estima Emina / Lucida, Hiace, Hiace SBV, Hilux, Hilux Surf, Land Cruiser, Land Cruiser Prado, MR2, Prius, RAV4, Spacia, Sprinter, Sprinter Trueno, Tarago, Town Ace and Yaris. The exact application still needs to be matched to the vehicle and switch arrangement.

Application and Buying Notes

Before ordering, confirm the original switch uses an M10 x 1.25 thread and allows a 14 mm spanner to seat correctly. Those are the clearest physical identifiers provided here, and they help avoid fitting issues where the thread form or body size differs from the replacement part.

The circuit type is just as important as the thread. This Tridon unit is a normally closed stop light switch, so it should only be selected where that switching logic matches the vehicle’s original setup. If the circuit type does not match, the brake lights may not operate as intended.

The supplied application references cover several Holden, Honda, Lexus and Toyota models, but they should be treated as a guide rather than a guarantee. Vehicle model names alone are not enough; the safest check is to compare the part number TBS005, the thread size, the circuit type and the existing switch on the vehicle.

If you are replacing a failed brake light switch, it is worth matching the old part by its thread, mounting style and electrical behaviour before removing the original unit. That approach is more reliable than relying on a model name alone, especially on vehicles with more than one switch variation.

This part is sold individually and covered by a two-year warranty. Keep that in mind when comparing it with other options, especially if you need only one switch for a repair rather than a pair or a kit.

Before supply, the safest approach is to confirm the original unit details against the listed part number, voltage, output rating, mounting arrangement, and pulley configuration. That checking process is standard practice in the parts trade because visually similar units can still differ in service-critical ways.

For workshop, fleet, and equipment applications, accurate identification of part number TBS005 helps avoid unnecessary freight, additional labour, and vehicle or machine downtime. Where the application is not straightforward, the original unit, OEM reference, or workshop records should be used as the primary confirmation point.

Tridon Stop Light Switch. Part number TBS005 should be checked first. These details form the core reference points used by parts interpreters when confirming the correct replacement.

For part number TBS005, the normal identification sequence is part number, electrical rating, mounting arrangement, connector or terminal style, and pulley or drive details. Using those checkpoints helps confirm that the listed unit matches the service requirement rather than only looking similar.

For a switch in workshop, fleet, trade, agricultural, or construction service, the listed electrical specification should be checked carefully. Incorrect selection can affect installation time, return freight, and equipment availability.

Available application references include HOLDEN APOLLO, HOLDEN NOVA, HONDA CIVIC, HONDA CIVIC 1999, HONDA CIVIC 2000, HONDA CR-V. Even with application listings, final confirmation should still be based on the exact unit being replaced and the service requirements of the vehicle or machine.

The listed warranty is Two Years. Warranty terms should be considered alongside correct application and part identification, as warranty does not replace fitment confirmation.

Compatibility note: Confirm fitment by matching the vehicle application, part number TBS005, M10 x 1.25 thread and normally closed circuit before ordering. If the existing switch differs in any of those details, do not assume it will interchange.
