When I step on the brakes hard, my brake light flickers.

Default You will find the little sucker...

...in the front left corner of the vehicle -underneath, that is...right out in the open (with the bellypan off.) Just follow the return hose from the pentosin res. down to it!

There are 2 pressure outlets from the PS pump - the front is the high brake side.

Take the opportunity to flush your hydraulic system out.

Just hope it dosen't start ticking....
