Re: Brake warning light help.
Hey guys I'm still working on this light issue. I talked to someone different at Painless today and he said the opposite. He told me the key switch is wired to do a bulb check when in start position. This makes more sense because both the temp light and brake warning light wires go into the switch.
As VetteVet suggested, I did go back and check to see if there was a ground between the switch body and wire terminal on back of switch when cranking. It did not ground. Does this now sound like it would be the switch? You mentioned that the switch has to be internally configured to ground during cranking. By the way I replaced my old switch and key cylinder with a new switch. Is it possible that some are not configured to internally ground that way? BTW the switch is installed and mounted into the dash and not hanging, so it should be grounded.
Also please take a look at my previous thread where I included pictures. My 7-gauge panel has temp gauge, battery and oil (besides speedometer and fuel). It also has the temp light and brake warning light in with the fuel gauge. Isn't this the standard configuration for this style instrument panel?
