Hello,

Working on something else the other day and I noticed that when I put my E-Brake in the down position and it should stop blinking after start up, that it continues to blink, I took the switch out checked the connection and cleaned the connection, replaced and still blinks.
Do these switches go bad?
Where is the path of the wires from the switch to the left guage, I assume it runs under the seat brace to the console and up into the dash, I should check the connection to the guage from the switch at the E-Brake next?

Any ideas?

Thank you,

Here's a photo of my car, using the "reach-around" method to hit the reset button. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads/post-10752-1271383421.jpg)

The white plastic surrounds the metal button. On the left side, hard to see in this pic, is the male spade connector to which the wire in the foreground was connected... before I accidentally yanked it off.
