Brake warning light switch...reset?

Any tips on how to reset the brake warning light switch on the master cylinder after rebuilding the front calipers? The brakes are fine, the switch is single wire with no little push button that some say resets the switch.
I have tried pushing the brake pedal to the floor while bleeding a wheel cylinder. It resets the switch only for a while, then back to the red blinking dash light. Whats the secret?

On the M/C it's self where the pressure switch is. there is a little plastic push button next to the spade connector. More like so tiny it's hard to see.
push it in and you are good to go. You should be able to get to it if you turn the wheel to the right and snake your hand up in the hole to the M/C.

Thanks guys; The story is I have an odd ball switch. Pt#0343102010 for what MC I don't know as the Pelican Pt# for a single pole is 91461311600. Still up in the air on how to reset this thing. Maybe I will pull it and try to reset the pin and maybe the inner shuttle that activates this switch. Until then I will leave it unplugged.
