Took the 914 out for a long overdue spin today and when I released the ebrake the red light in the combo gauge continued to blink. I thought I would ask the brain trust here before making any mistakes. Stuck switch? I tried setting and releasing the ebrake several times but no luck. The brake does disengage but the light continues to blink as though it is still set.
Thanks in advance for your suggestions as to how to repair. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) Ron |

If you do need to check at the master cylinder, remember that the switch there does not exist just to randomly require a reset and annoy people, it is ther to warn you of a pressure difference between the two braking circuits that can lead to brake failure. If the switch on the master cylinder is causing the issue, it’s time to give the brakes a thorough inspection and test.
