supreme_style21 Posted December 29, 2007 Report Share Posted December 29, 2007 95 Grand Prix 3100 What all is this dummy light indicating? It never came on until I hit a deer a few years ago.. the car sat in a garage for a year (driven a few miles every few months). Now it comes on sporadically. The ABS light is on all the time, but IIRC, I pulled the fuse years ago because I don't like ABS. The fluid level is where it should be, it isn't leaking anywhere. The parking brake isn't on. The brakes work perfectly fine whether the light is on or not. I've been ignoring it.. I figure its just an electrical gremlin from it sitting so long... but I suppose I should find out for sure before/if they fail and I eat someones back bumper. Where is it pulling the problem from?

ns87 Posted December 29, 2007 Report Share Posted December 29, 2007 there should be a sensor on the parking brake assembly. I assume its not catching that the brake pedal is up all the way? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ns87 Posted December 29, 2007 Report Share Posted December 29, 2007 Idk. Try unplugging that sensor first. I did that when I took out my parking brake pedal. No lights Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supreme_style21 Posted December 29, 2007 Author Report Share Posted December 29, 2007 Would it cause a sporadic thing? I'm thinking it has to be a sensor, somewhere? I don't know where all that one pulls from.. I should just unplug all of them. I can live with the light, I'll have the car until it dies with all the money I have stuck into it. I can't see it being anything serious, but who knows. The car might be smarter than I am. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ns87 Posted December 30, 2007 Report Share Posted December 30, 2007 IIRC at the top of the parking brake assembly (right under the dash) is a small box with one wire going to it. The wire just slides off Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
