That sounds a lot easier than trying to crawl down there between the seat and steering column and still get both arms up under the dash to reach the wires. I know i was no problem doing this on my past Itasca but was afraid to get to aggressive removing things here on the DS until I get more acquainted with all the parts.
Thanks.

Just a big THANK YOU to everyone in the above posts who helped me get the Jeep brake warning light attached at the coach dash area.
I had to go down below to find the wires but once I clipped the tie holding them in place i could poke them up through the dash opening where I'd removed the dash instruments. Which was a lot easier than i could have imagined. That made it so much easier to do all the wire stripping and connecting wires standing up just working over the steering wheel. Then I could drop everything back down below and attach the light to the lower edge of the dash.
Took a little more time, as usual, than I thought it should but then I did run into trouble with one of the plug connectors at the front end of the Jeep. I had replaced half the plug connection with a new one but didn't realize the male ends on the new one didn't fit tight enough into the female sockets of the old end. My multimeter keep showing a connection but it took a while for this brain to realize the reading was very poor. When i fixed that and found the correct wires at the dash everything fell into place.
Sure glad to have that light as I had made one 2,000 trip without it and always bothered me that I wasn't able to know if something might have caused the brakes on the Jeep to stay activated.
Thanks again fellows.
