The brake light switch is located on the bottom by the master cylinder with two wires coming off of it.

Gary, look just in front of the cowl, driver side, on top of the frame. I am not sure on a '53, but I think there will be a junction block where the lines divide for front to back. The switch should be in that block, screwed into the top.
