Morning,

I have a 2007 Hino that has an issue I can't figure out. We've replaced the fuel filters, and the brake switch sensor in the back near the wheels.

Here's a video showing what the truck is doing

Thanks for any thoughts...

On mine there are two brake switch sensors and I had replace both of them for the issue to go away

thanks, the one pictured was replaced...though you're saying there are two. Don't think we did both of them.

If you are umder the truck by the rear wheels facing the front,onei s on your immediate right and the other one is almost in the middle of the axle...you cant miss them...change both or switch them around to test for faultiness

There's a couple air switches under the truck, but only one is a brake switch. The other brake switch is in front of the brake pedal. The inputs of these brake switches both have to correlate.

so we ended up taking it to the shop... as of Friday they think its an EGR valve issue (though still T/S)

Sometimes the 2005-2007 trucks develop EGR problems that you can see with software (the valve can't be commanded through its full range of travel) yet it won't set a CEL. The symptoms for that tend to be terrible acceleration off the line but seemingly normal power at higher rpms. Since it's at the shop, they should check for brake switch/stop light switch correlation at all times.
