Hi all,
Most of you probably know this, but for a classic Porsche newbie like me, it is new.
My handbrake lever had a little play and when in the down position, whilst driving, it would vibrate and cause the light on the instrument gauge to flash spasmodically.
After removing the rubber boot on the handbrake/hand throttle/heater levers to see if I could adjust something, I had no luck.
I looked on this forum, but nothing, so after reading tons of stuff on a Pelican and Early911 about master cylinders, etc, I found a post about adjusting a flathead screw, which in turn adjusts a sensor underneath the handbrake lever plate.
The one flathead screw is under the removable rubber boot, almost to rear of the actual lever assembly on the drivers side (for RHD, passenger for LHD). I needed a very short screwdriver to fit between the brake and seat. Half a turn anti clockwise (in my case) fixed this annoying occurrence. Everything now works as normal.
