Electrical / Re: Dash brake light« Last post by bd on Today at 04:20:11 pm »The brake combination valve is a roughly 2.5" x 5" x 1" brass block that has 5 brake lines running to it and a single-pin switch that connects to the tan/wht wire for the brake warning lamp.

**I found an explanation as to where it is. I will try that tomorrow** 4
Electrical / Re: Dash brake light« Last post by bd on Today at 03:08:18 pm »Is there any pattern as to when the brake warning lamp extinguishes? Unplug the tan/wht wire from the brake combination valve to see whether the brake warning lamp goes off and remains off.

Fuel Systems and Drivability / Re: Gas gauge issues« Last post by JohnnyPopper on Today at 02:41:07 pm »Well, maybe I've jumped the gun
Still have a question: If the relay has failed, wouldn't it still read one tank? Let me analyze my own question: If the relay still moves the valve, has it failed? No Both tank's sending units display accurately when she decides to wake up. All other gauges work flawlessly. Okay, flame away or please offer some guidance. TIA 6

I think its the relay that ChatGPT said didn't exist.................... ![]() Anyone know where it lives? TIA ![]() 7
Fuel Systems and Drivability / Gas gauge issues« Last post by JohnnyPopper on Today at 01:37:20 pm »'88 R30 Dual tank. Pollak valve.
Gauge will intermittently read the fuel level, and then go dead. While alive, it correctly reads the level of each tank, and switch the valve. I have determined that the valve works without the gauge being operational. I think that rules out the switch. I have cleaned the connection at the valve with DeoxIt. Any thoughts on where the gremlin lives? 8
Electrical / Dash brake light« Last post by MY1978 on Today at 12:58:50 pm »Hello, I have a new issue.
My dash brake light is stuck on even while in drive. I have depressed the emergency brake and released several times but it doesn't go out. I have checked the fluid level and it is fine. Every once in a GREAT while, it will go out. Today I ran a couple of errands and drove for over an hour and the light stayed on. Any suggestions/thoughts? 9
Steering Columns / Re: Horn honks when hooking up to battery« Last post by MY1978 on Today at 12:54:25 pm »Here's another thought. With the lock plate flipped upside-down, nestle the c-cam into its normal position against the lock plate in the same way the parts would be assembled in the column. Does any part of the c-cam brass contact ring touch the lock plate? Hey, wanted to let you know that I FINALLY worked slowly and carefully looking at each part as they went into place. I placed the locking plate in place (not compressed with retaining clip) and pressed on it several times. No honk. I then moved on to securing the plate in place, No Honk. I put the steering wheel back together piece by piece checking for honk. Once all together, and battery was connected. No Honk!!!!! unless I pressed on horn button. So, the only thing different is the insulator on the c-cam. Something on the other c-cam must have been grounding it? I also changed out the relay, just in case. So, it seems like THAT is fixed. Thank you so much for your time, expertise and pictures. Now, I have another issue that I will be posting in another forum about my brake light. 10
