Been awhile since I had my Z32 but I think the car is telling you a bulb is out. Usually the 3rd brake light is the culprit. Jim

Also check the fluid levels in each reservoir (something you should do regularly anyway).

I was hoping we might see you at last weekend's buffet and get-together, but then I remembered you were working nights last time we talked.

Yeah ~ make sure there's enough brake fluid in the master cylinders. Some cars are fancy enough to "know" when the fluid levels get too low.

If we can get Paul Mackin or Tom Wasney in on this discussion, they would know why your light is coming on ~ each of them has owned a garagefull of these cars over the years.

I'd go with the 3rd brake light idea. but also good to check fluids anyways.

any luck figuring out with your problem yet. The other fellows are on the right track with third brake light. make sure you post what it was once you solve it. It will help members in the future.

Feel free to contact me directly for help on all Z32 300zx problems, there are A LOT of them!

Good luck
