Service brake light issues


Recommended Posts

Hello, I have a 1986 R688 that I’m getting ready to put to work in the log woods, and I’m having a service brake light issue. When the park brake is set, the brake lights work when the brake pedal is pushed. When you push the park brake knob in, they still work, but as soon as the line is pressurized and the spring brakes release, the brake lights won’t work. This poor old truck has been wrecked 9 times over the years, and 7 of those it was totaled! So, there’s no telling what all is tore up or Jimmy Rigged back together, no offense to the folks named Jimmy… LOL Any ideas would be greatly appreciated! Thank y’all!!

Hi welcome to the site!

Behind the the panel where the buttons are there is a switch with three terminals on it on the park button  that switch is likey your issue it lets the brake lights work spring brakes applied and treadle goes thru it when the springs are released!
