Brake light

The light refers to the parking brake. Try jiggling the parking brake lever when the light is on.

Does the 87 Nissan have a sensor for brake fluid level? Really, I don't know (or think so).

My 87 Pulsar does, and it's basically the same car under the hood.

OK, the only time I see the brake indicator light on the dashboard in my

You have an an 87 Pulsar? So did I. I loved that car. 1.6 liter 4 cylinder, electronic carburetor, 35+ MPG, and could go over 100 MPH. When I first bought it I thought the speedometer came out of a Z. I did have it up to 115 mph one early Sunday morning on a freeway when there was no one around. I had to back off only because I was coming to an on ramp and was afraid that some one may pull onto the road without looking, or a cop. :-)

My Pulsar needs a lot of work, but I love the car. One thing about it, the engine seems bullet-proof. I have corrosion problems and aligment problems (I need to practically replace everything suspension related), but that engine just keeps chugging along.

I take it by electronic carburetor, you are talking about throttle body injection?

Even newer cars have the system that when the Alt S fuse blows or the regulator in the alternator fails, both the battery and brake lighst will come on, though the brake light with be a lil dimmer; the brake light will glow normally when the handbrake or brake fluid level switches are activated.
