i have functional hand brake warning light and blinkers. However, when I release the handbrake on my 1972 model, the light changes to a very weak blinking and I can hear the flasher clicking. The turn signal system is unaffected. If I disconnect the switch at the brake handle, it still happens, so the obvious switch failure is ruled out.
My first thought is a partial short to ground from one of the brown and white wires, but I wonder if it could be the relay/flasher itself? That would be easier than tracing for a frayed wire or connector touching the body. Thanks. |
