brake master cylinder

I'm using a 70 vw master brake cylinder. It has 2 stop light connectors, the end one has three terminals but the other only has 2. My wiring loom only has 2. Do I need to wire the other 3 up? I assume one of the terminals is earth?

The manual shows both switches having only 2 terminals and wired in parallel.

I assume they are switches for the front and rear. Should I wire the dash light into the top terminal of from end switch? The one with 3 terminals.

thanks

Paul

Why do you mean by" wire the dash light in"

the warning light on the dash. I'm wiring in a momentary switch to check the circuit but still need a light on the dash to warn of issues/failure.

When your control light is burning you have no brake pressure anymore so the control light is useless in my opinion.

Your control is pressure behind the brake pedal.
