Default 93 Grand Caravan "Dual Pressure Function Switch" ABS Issue

Hey guys. I need a favor.

'93 Grand Caravan 3.3

My van (not surprisingly) got the notorious "hard braking" problem a while back. The dealer replaced the ABS pump under recall and replaced a sensor since that didn't solve the whole problem. Well, braking is fine and the brake light is off but the pump continues to run.

They said I need a "Dual Pressure Function Switch" and they wanted some ridiculous price for it (more than I paid for the van) so I said no. I'm trying to snag one from a junk yard but I have no idea what I'm looking for. Could someone help point me in the right direction? Even better, is someone willing to take a picture and draw an arrow to what I'm looking for?

Thanks so much in advance.

It looks like an oil pressure switch, but its not. You need a thin wall socket, i believe the dealer is the only ones that have that socket.
