Regarding the late model R12 (1.4 / Virage) instrument panel.
On the right cluster (at about 4 o'clock position) is the brake warning light. This normally illuminates with ignition on, then flashes and extinguishes after engine start. Presumably, the flashing is a part of the circuit self-test on the brake fluid reservoir level, and the master cylinder dual circuit pressure switch.
Recently, this light has remained illuminated at all times. Removal of the terminals to the reservoir and master cylinder do not extinguish the light. The printed circuit appears OK, as does the diode (although I am not sure if the diode is actually a part of the brake light circuit).
Does anybody have any suggestion for correcting this problem? Removal of the globe will not be considered as an option!!
Cheers,
Kim.
