does anyone have any idea as to why the interior brake warning light is still on after I have changed the hoses and bled the system. Is there another switch hidden away,because I disconnected the wires on the resevoir float level and the light still stayed on. Im a bit stuck as I am selling the car to make way for another toy and I promised the new owner I would sort it out. Most appreciated, Edward.

Mine has 2 lights, one for the handbrake and one for low fluid.

Is it possibly the handrake one the is always on.

Alternatively do your pads have a low warning light?

no the h/ brake light works fine and there are no sensors on the pads on any of the wheels, everything works fine in the system just this blooming light wont go out.

Hi all, newboy here, just got my first Porsche, a 1994 968 CS. I saw the post with the link to the wiring diagrams and wondered if there were any for the 968?

The battery charge and fuel gauge jump from time to time, from normal reading to lower than they should be! i'm thinking/hoping it's a bad earth connection somewhere and a diagram would be really useful.

thanks in advance
