Hello

Well this is a silly one. After starting the car and releasing the parking brake the light in the dash stayed on. I removed the switch and played with it while the car was running. While it was hooked up to the brown wire and grounded, the light would get brighter when the engaged position was simulated. and then it would dull when put in the released position, but still stay on. I tried grounding out the brown wire and it had the same effect. When grounded the light in the dash would dim but stay bright all other times. I am thinking it is a short but I dont have the time now to pull up seats and carpet. Searched the board but only found problems with multiple dash light. Sorry for the length and thanks for the help. It is a 240 dl wagon 84

thanks again
joe
