Volks,

A few weeks ago,I bought a 1984 Westy.  The brake system warning light stays
on when the engine is running.  I checked the emergency brake release switch
and it is ok.  This means that either I have a problem with the brakes or the
system thinks I have a brake problem.  As far as I can tell, the brakes work
all right but I haven't driven  it fully loaded in the mountains or any place
that would put the brakes to the test.  Does anyone have an educated guess as
to what most likely is the problem or advice on how to trace down the problem.

                                            TIA,
                                            john
