Do either of you guys have a used Brake Charging switch/sensor? 1988 XJ6 Vanden Plas
Or possibly both (the Low Brake Pressure sensor and the Brake Charging Switch) connected to the green plug?
Bad leak in the O ring on the Charging switch. Thought I had it fixed but it popped again. I see that new ones run in the multiple hundreds of dollars.

Thanx!!

Accumulator charge switches and low pressure switches have an O ring on the mounting flange where they screw into the accumulator housing. These rarely fail.

The switches fail (more commonly the charge switch) when they leak hyraulic fluid from the other end of the switch, where the wires exit. That means a replacement switch. A used one is a mighty gamble, I have a source for aftermarket replacements but they are not cheap...just cheaper than factory.
