1972 USA Owners manual
BRAKE SYSTEM WARNING LAMP
If either half of the dual brake system fails, the brake warning light (BRAKE) glows when brakes are applied. You must stop the car immediately and if you can safely operate with two-wheel brakes, move your car at reduced speed to the nearest service station.
This warning light is also used as the parking brake warning light.
Before starting, if the warning light does not glow when the parking brake and ignition switch are on, have the electrical system checked.
