The first pictures are of a pressure switch for the brake light in the dash. If the front/rear brakes have a problem the light will come on due to more pressure on one side than the other basicly.

The push button switch in the last picture is the one used on the brake pedal to activate the brake lights on the rear of the truck. The picture I used is of a mod I did to my e brake to light up the dash light if my e brake is engaged.
It works the same way though.
