1980 K5 Dash Brake Light ON
I have been unable to locate a complete wiring diagram for my 1980 K5, so please help.
The parking brake indicator light on the dash is always on.
Brakes seem to work just fine.
I have located the parking brake switch and unplugged the connector. Light is still on.
What else activates this indicator?
I assume that this indicator is activated by completing a ground circuit.
ALSO, if anyone knows where I can find a complete wring diagram for future reference, please let me know.
Incomplete diagrams are easy to find (AUTOZONE).
Thanks in advance.

It definitely sounds like you have a wire that has shorted to ground, completing the circuit for the brake light.
As far as a complete wiring diagram, try eBay (CLICK HERE). I found all of the manuals (service, overhaul, and wiring) there for reasonable $$.
