Darrell-
My guess is you are running Dot5 in your system? That is what I think created
the same problem in my 3A - brakes would only light if I stomped on them,
sensitivity was lost. My solution was switching to a mechanical switch
mounted under the dash.
I think you can pull that switch quickly and not need a complete rebleed, but
of course plan on bleeding just in case. But if you do use Dot5, expect this
to be a recurring issue based on what I've seen.
