I dont know for sure what your brake switch looks like. Some I've seen are snap-in and some mopars have a lock nut used to secure and adjust the distance between the plunger and the brake arm. I'm no mopar expert, but I know electrics. This may also be a reach, and someone correct me if I'm out there, But could a leakey master cylinder cause a brake pedal to sag slightly overnight? Just fishin. But first check to see the switch is tight and adjusted properly. Good luck.

Mounted under the dash, contacting the brake pedal arm between the pad and the upper pivot. http://www.napaonline.com/MasterPage...ion=Stoplight+ Click on the arrow next to connector and select full if it doesnt show the full image
