how come when i drive my truck my brake light flashes on??? it comes off and on??? the rear brakes squeek a little.during the winter time it stays on all the time.i'm afraid the e-brake line brake off.it happend to my brother's 82 toyota sr-5 4x4.i owned a 1992 sre-5 4x4 extendedcab it didn't even have the e-brake work.any help would be great.also i hear a noise coming off my power steering too.it sound's like when the ford's need there power steering overhauld too.any suggestions on that too???
Tighten the power steering belt. If the ebrake works, adjust the cable so it pulls all the way down. That'll make the back brakes not drag anymore.
have you checked your brake fluid level lately? check to see if its low..... there is a sensor that comes on when it gets low. im assuming the charge light does not flash on at the same time right? otherwise that would indicate somethin in the charging system is goin south..... anyhow, check your fluid level and report back in. as for your power steering mystery noise its probably either low on fluid or you may have air in the system........ is it constant or sparatic?
