  1. Battery voltage is applied to the BRAKE indicator when the ignition switch is in RUN, BULB TEST or START position. Ground for the circuit is supplied through any of several switches which monitor low brake fluid level, unequal brake pressure and parking brake lever engagement.
  2. BRAKE indicator may also come on when a problem is detected in anti-lock brake system (if equipped). If there is a problem with BRAKE indicator functioning, check appropriate switches and circuits. See WIRING DIAGRAM  .
