It uses a normally open circuit, which is the key operating detail to confirm before ordering for a brake light circuit application.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis switch sits in the auto electrical category and is listed under fuses, breakers, relays and switches. For buyers matching a replacement, the important identifiers here are the Tridon brand, TBS071 part number, M10 x 1 thread, 22mm spanner size and normally open circuit configuration.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe product is covered by a two year warranty and is intended as a direct switch component rather than a universal accessory. If you are comparing an old unit, the thread size and circuit type are the first points to check, followed by the spanner size where physical access is tight during installation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTridon stop light switch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePart number TBS071\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eM10 x 1 thread\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e22mm spanner size\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNormally open circuit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSold individually as each\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrand: Tridon\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProduct type: Switch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDescription: Stop Light Switch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePart No.: TBS071\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThread: M10 x 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSpanner: 22mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCircuit: Normally open\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUnit of measure: Each\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFitment guidance\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVerified application data includes Volkswagen 1600 model years 1961 through 1972.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVerified application data also includes Volkswagen Beetle, with sample coverage shown from 1954 onward in the supplied fitment data.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAdditional fitment groups are listed for Volkswagen 1500, Volkswagen Country Buggy, Volkswagen Golf, Volkswagen Karmann Ghia, Volkswagen Kombi, Volkswagen Transporter and Volkswagen Transporter \/ Caravelle.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFitment should be confirmed against the part number TBS071, the M10 x 1 thread and the normally open circuit before purchase.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eApplication and Buying Notes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen replacing a stop light switch, match the part number TBS071 first, then confirm the thread is M10 x 1 and the switch operates as normally open. Those three details are the most useful checks because a brake light switch must suit both the thread in the mounting point and the circuit behaviour expected by the vehicle wiring.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 22mm spanner size is also worth noting if access to the switch is limited. It helps you plan the correct tool before starting the job, especially where the switch is mounted in a confined position and there is little room for an oversized socket or spanner.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf you are comparing against an existing part, do not rely on vehicle name alone. The supplied fitment data shows a broad Volkswagen application group, but the safe way to buy is to confirm the part number, thread size and circuit type against the original switch or the vehicle’s application details.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis switch is listed as a two year warranty item and is supplied individually. If you need multiple switches for workshop stock or a fleet vehicle, allow for ordering each unit separately rather than assuming a pair or kit is included.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor older Volkswagen applications in particular, previous repairs and replacement parts can create variation. Check the old switch carefully, especially the thread form and the electrical function, so the replacement aligns with the existing mount and wiring before installation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBefore 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor workshop, fleet, and equipment applications, accurate identification of part number TBS071 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRelevant published details for this unit include Type SWITCH, Unit of Measure EACH, Warranty Two Years, Product Group 1 AUTO ELEC ACCESSORIES, Part No. TBS071, Brand TRIDON, Description Tridon Stop Light Switch, Product Group 2 FUSES BREAKERS RELAYS SWITCHES.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTridon Stop Light Switch. Part number TBS071 should be checked first. These details form the core reference points used by parts interpreters when confirming the correct replacement.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor part number TBS071, 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAvailable application references include 1600 1961, 1600 1962, 1600 1963, 1600 1964, VOLKSWAGEN 1500, VOLKSWAGEN BEETLE.
