If you look in Dion's second pic above you can see the switch is mounted right into that metal cross member on the floor pan and then grounded to the chassis. Get a replacement switch and insert it into that square shaped hole on the metal cross member. Then make sure the wire is grounded either by connecting it what's left of the original wire or doing it in a manner to what Dion did.

Just to be clear, the e-brake is a mechanical setup, though. In and of itself this isn't causing the original issue you described (unless pieces of your switch are interfering with operation somehow).


Thank you Rob, I will get the new switch. Your second comment is what I am still concerned about. I really didn't do anything and now the e brake works. I will replace the switch and have to wait and see if I have any further issues with the e brake down the road.
