I recently had the brake calipers and lines replaced on my '75 teener. When I got it back from the shop, the brake warning flasher light was on all the time. The shop said they tried to fix it, but i'm not sure they knew what they were doing.
The pedal feels a little soft, but the brakes work and the reservoir is full. Any ideas what could be causing the brake warning light to flash whenever the car is running? Thanks, Robbie |

If your master cylinder does not have a reset on the outside, you need to pull the switch out of the master cylinder and there will be a button on the inside of the switch for you to press to reset it.

Master cylinder now uncovered. Will the brake fluid come out of the master cylinder when I pull the switch out? Thanks, Robbie |
