The master cylinder is up under the car (pull the panel just behind the front trunk area and you will see it)

Look into the wheel well, and follow the tie rod back into the body. Below the tie rod is the master cylinder. You can reach in there and push the reset switch that is between the brake lines. |

Thanks for the replies, At least it was a good excuse to clean out the trunk.
By the way what is behind the black cover in the front trunk behind where there spare goes? I took the four screw out on the corners but what ever is behind it seems to be bolted to the cover,I did not want to remove the nuts holding what ever is behind there until I know what is there. |

Yeah
That's the fuel pump To get to the Master cylinder you need to start underneath the car Right behind the trunk is the cover for the steering rack and master cylinder pull off the 4 bolts holding it on and there you go |

Thanks for all the info,the light is now out-it must have been a loose connection because I never saw the reset swith but i did make sure the wire on the master cyl. was snug.
Hope to meet some of you at the swap meet this weekend. |
