Derek,

	If you have not yet replaced your Nitrogen Accumulator (the bomb),
this sounds like what it could be. Otherwise I would agree that a Master
Cylinder could be the problem. Not getting the indicator light could be just
a bad switch. Good luck!

I have noticed that the brake pedal is getting difficult to push down in a
panic stop. It feels o.k. in a normal stop. I am not getting any brake light
flicker which would indicate a bad nitrogen ball. The pedal will eventually
go
almost to the floor after you stand on it hard for like 20 seconds. Thinking
master cylinder.. any ideas??
