Beeper for Parking Brake??

Actually not every time you step on the brakes unless the light comes on then too. My parking light only comes on with the parking brake not the foot petal brake. The problem is that if you get off the seat, for instance to use a pto chipper or backhoe, the backup alarm would sound unless it times out. Another option would be a switch to turn it off but I think that would defeat the purpose of it. I still searching to see if I can find a solid state timed relay for low cost to work in your circuit.

Does your TN not beep at you when you attempt to take off with the parking brake still engaged? Mine does

Maybe Backhoehoe could adapt this setup to his

My tc doesn't beep and the brake doesn't slow it down. I think a better option would be if you could attach the alarm to the shuttle lever, so when you put it in F/R with the brake on it would beep. I don't know if thats possible though.

Maybe that is the way my TN is set up? I'm not sure as I don't have the schematics available -

I'll bet Andy will know since he has a TN and is an EE

For whatever reason, I haven't attempted to take off with the parking brake on too many times, but rather than try to find a timer/beeper combination, maybe wiring the pareking brake light tap in series with the "in gear" switch would be the best approach.
