it might indicate a problem in the master cylinder. not sure. the wiring diagrams on pp might help. the switches and gage is on the 2nd page on 71 models. looks like a brown wire with a yellow stripe. there are multiple connections, but my vision goes away when i look at the online diagrams.

the diagram is here

look at item 38 and 40 . from the listing it looks like a usa thing. ralph nader at work.

pull the handbrake(brown/yellow stripe) wire off at the dash and see if it still flashes. if it does not the short is in that wire. if she still flashes, follow the other wires on the diagram.

if you are disconnecting it at the dash and it stops flashing , the short/pinch is in that wire to ground or a bad switch.

if you are disconnecting it at the brake , its a bad handbrake switch.
