Out running errands and when leaving I noticed the brake light blinking. I do use the parking brake a lot. so I pulled it on and off a couple times, no change. The brakes feel normal. Stopped for gas and checked the fluid reservoir, its at the proper level.
Then driving home, after a couple miles the light went off. (?) When I got home it was back on again. I am thinking maybe a wonky parking brake switch. But will check the switch on the master also Is the parking brake switch a Normal Open or Normal Closed? Anyone else have this happen ? Or know of something else I should check.... |

Ok, confirmed it is not the parking brake switch.
Just got it up in the air to remove the pan to access the master cylinder, but that may have to wait a day. (4th of July stuff happening) If that is not it I will have to check the wires' Checked that the 4-ways and turn signals function correctly. Thanks Jerry for the wiring diagram. |
