94 e320 new problem with BRAKE warning light
So after shorting the pins on the K38 relay the BRAKE warning lamp is illuminated and there is a soft buzzing from about the location of the relay. Hopefully this is simply part of the bad relay (i'm ordering a new one from fastlane) and it will go away. Any idea why this light would go on or what makes the buzzing noise.
BTW: Just before I shut my car off the last time it was running (proir to the temp. relay fix) as i pushed the brakes to stop my car the BRAKE warnging lamp came on and made the same buzzing noise. After that...no start (and even still with the relay temp. fixed) TIA for everyone's help, this forum is amazing you guys! |

OK I can't help but do have a question... is it the ABS or the brake pad warning light?

neither, its the lamp that says BRAKE on it (it normally comes on when you engage the emergency brake - however the emergency brake is not engaged)

Seems it was the combination relay (big relay by the fuses - for brake lights, turn signals, etc. etc.) - I think the "BRAKE" was illuminated because I didn't have any brake lights.
