Abstract

A switch apparatus for detecting an imbalance condition between a first fluid circuit and a second fluid circuit. The switch apparatus has a housing with a bore therein in which a sleeve is located. The sleeve has a peripheral section which is electrically non-conductive and a central bore therethrough with a first diameter and a second diameter. A first piston is located in the first diameter and a second piston is located in the second diameter. A pin is connected to the second piston to limit the movement thereof in the central bore. When a pressure imbalance occurs, the sleeve will move and allow a plunger to move off the non-conductive peripheral surface to complete an electric circuit to inform an operator of a potential brake system failure.
