85 T-Type Brakes

[GNX070]

I have an 85 T-Type! And every time you step on the brake you get a power surge and the brake light comes on! Any ideas? Thanks for your Help???

I've been trying to figure this out for a year or so to no avail!

Sounds like you have the powermaster brake setup on your 85...

Sounds like the accumulator is bad...FIX IT SOON because one of these times you will step on your brakes and you won't have any...

Hope this helps you...
