Once again need the help of the great 914 Brain Trust here........
My Parking Brake Light stays on all the time. The switch is fairly new and it is functioning properly. Disconnecting the brown (ground) wire to the switch, it has no continuity or resistance to ground. So it is not "grounded out" somewhere. I see in my great 914 electrical schematic of the ground circuit for the switch and light that there are two diodes in the circuit. I am guessing that one of them failed. Can anyone tell me where these two diodes are located? Or where else the problem might be? As always, TIA, GN |
