A lot of it has to do with your driving style, and how sensitive you are to changes in your car. Keep in min; /html/triumphs/1998-04/msg00947.html (9,938 bytes)

14. Re: TR6 - Brake Warning light (score: 1): Author: Unknown; Date: Wed, 15 Apr 1998 10:51:00 EDT; No, just that they cut corners to save money too. An example of that is the use of the brake lights for the hazard flasher on some of the '60s cars (they may still do).
