Re: Brake Pressure Warning Switch

They came on 71's. It is mounted on the combination valve. Often the emergency brake uses the same light & doesn't return far enough to turn it off or gets out of adjustment.

moved from the electrical forum to the truck forum
Agreed, no parking brake lights in 67 - 72 trucks.

Re: Brake Pressure Warning Switch

look for an added switch on your pedal. Never seen one stock like that, never seen reference to a stock one, never seen anything on any schematics (to include one from GM printed for techs for the new model 72 cars and trucks).
