- I'm not 100% sure about a '77 Spitfire, but on the earlier cars the brake warning light coming on was due to an interconnection with the oil pressure light/sender. It was a relatively cheap (if a bit

- The seatbelt warning light is controlled by the time/buzzer module on the interior bulkhead. The light & buzzer will operate (momentarily) only if the seatbelt is not fastened when you first crank th

- More info on why I'm asking. It's probably a CDO thing but... since a few days ago, my brake light will turn on for a fixed amount of time if...(and I think this is true) there's a change in current

- My rule of thumb for auto wiring is: when lights do funny things look for grounding problems. Grounding problems can make the strangest things happen. Sam disconnected the

- Peter S. seconds: Bob thirds: I agree. I would also disconnect the buzzer/timer module (for troubleshooting purposes only <G>). It will either have a black "edge" connector, or a round one similar to

- Yes, late last night I was severely annoyed with this problem and pulled off the connector to the buzzer/timer thing. When I turned on the lights, it did NOT turn on the brake light ! Hooray ! OK, so
