Hi everyone,
Please could you help in creating a circuit that I need to make. Im looking to replace a failed circuit that monitors brake fluid level in a car. The failed circuit lies within a 30 odd year old check control unit and the brake fluid monitoring section has failed. I have tried to use a 555 timer for this but have become stuck. I need the circuit to light a warning lamp when required. As im going to use wiring / float etc already in the car, the lamp needs to light when the float drops and breaks the path to ground / goes open circuit with ground. Also I need the light to remain on and not bounce the light on and off as the fluid moves around the reservoir tank as the car corners. This is important as I would intend to use the same circuit to replace a screen wash monitor etc.Please excuse my lack of knowledge, maybe there is a better way to do this? Any help would be gratefully received. Many thanks.
