[AMC-list] Parking brake warning light

[Jason Tell <jatell@xxxxxxxxx>]

Found it! There is a lens in the bezel of the parking brake release pull. Looking behind the dash I see a socket above the release that will hold the bulb. I have one ordered. Soon I will have a new (to me) option working on my car. Thanks.

When I was done I put everything back and found a loose instrument light bulb I didn?t recognize. The bulb was blown so I started searching my manuals and online for a replacement. The bulb is stamped G-E 256.  It?s a tough bulb to find because apparently it has a built in flasher. I found a place online that sells them and ordered a new bulb. The bulb number and wiring leads me to believe it is a parking brake warning light (which my owners manual says was an option).
