Just one of the little glitches on the way to getting "Pickle" to be perfect (at least for a few minutes).
So, when the parking brake is up, the dash light is one as it should be. When the brake is off, the light still glows though not quite as brightly. I assume that even when the brake is down, there is still a ground somewhere...a ground (short?) that should not be. I have checked the operation of the switch itself with an ohm meter and the switch seems to be fine. With the switch removed, the light still lights up pretty brightly, but if you ground the end of the wire to the body it glows more strongly. Again,this enforces my suspicion that the switch is not the problem. Other than the wire itself grounding somewhere or being shorted, where else could the problem be? BTW, when I first got the switch working last year, the light would go out once in awhile if I repeatedly dropped the brake handle, or took a corner very hard!
