    I believe in having working parking brakes but I wanted a electric parking brake, but I was not willing to pay 400 bucks for one so I fabricated my own.

    I have this wired when the parking brake is on the little (P) stays lit.






    It works pretty good

    A question: I take it that the light is on only when the ignition is?
