is there ment to be contact between the lever on the switch and the base of the pedals at all time? What would be even better is if someone could show me some pics of what its ment to look like with the pedal pressed and without the pedal pressed . .

There is supposed to be contact all the time. The switch is spring-loaded in the "turn the lights on" direction, so when nothing is moving the little arm back the lights will be on. The arm of the switch rides on the near side of the washer on the brake pushrod, and when the pedal is up (and the rod is moved back) the switch arm is moved and the light goes off.
Common mistake. --DD |
