I'm sure someone can throw some light on this issue so to speak.
I don't often use the car in the dark but it was getting to dusk last night and I put the side lights on...no instrument gauge lights came on except for Brake warning light on tach. Got home suspecting fuse etc. Fiddled with the rotational knob on the headlight switch and all working however Brake lamp warning still on. In the manual this should come on when you have ign on and parking brake engaged but it doesn't - only when I put the side lights or, as the manual says if there is a brake problem. Checked wire was on brake distribution valve , brakes are all good - for a vette LOL . checked brake fluid level all good. So Im suspecting the parking brake switch is playing up ? Warning light does not come on when using Park brake and no lights .
To summise... Brake warning on but only when side lights are on
Thanks for help
