Grounding problem?
 
So a few of my instrument panel features have not been workin correctly like my tach, temp guage, odometer, the cruise control works some of the time (it goes out of control most of the time), and the parking break light stays on even when the break is off (it works sometimes when i shift hard and the car jerks around a little).
I found solutions on here for my tach and odometer, so i was just wondering if maybe its a ground problem for the parking break light and possibly the cruise control too? I did a search but was not successful.

The parking break light problem is very common. The lever is relatively light, and tends to come up a little bit during WOT, therefore making the light come on. I think I remember someone a while ago using JB Weld to keep the parking brake lever done. Do a search, you'll find solutions. It's not a grounding problem.

thanks for the reference. although my light stays on all the time, even while at idle. I'll try the break adjustment and see what happens
