Re: 97 Tahoe dash brake light

On the bottom of the EBCM (says Kelsey Hayes on it) facing the master cylinder is a connector. It's below the top row of 3 brake lines and between the 2 lower lines. Disconnect that and do the same things you been doing to get the light to come on.

See if the light won't come on.

Let us know what happens
Speedy: I unplugged that connector and took another test ride. I could still feel this issue in the pedal, but the light did not come on.

Mr Rich: I tried to look above the column where the switch probably is. Its hard to reach and see. There is a brace/bracket on either side if the column that makes it hard to get to.

The sound it make sounds like a spring twanging but not very loud and you can feel in in the pedal at the same time.
