ITs too dark now to see anything. The car has been doing great for about 200 miles now since the line lock was installed. A LOT was installed at the same time.

This is for my 1998 Z. Coming from Outback my line lock keeps engaging. So thinking maybe the switch is bad I disconnect the wire from the switch. It still engages and basically slams on brakes when I am rolling to a stop.

Also when I hit the brakes it goes pssstttt and you can hear the brakes rubbing the rotors.

ANY I mean ANY suggestions would be greatly helpful.

I hope its that simple. Does anyone know the thread size of the brake lines? I can probably go to a real hardware store and get a temporary coupler and some teflon to test this theory. I would appreciate it.

Thanks in advance.

Just go to the parts store and they can pull a stock line for you. A good (probably local) parts house should have a coupler. Call the manufacturer of the line lock and talk to their tech dept. that's prob your best bet.
