Answer
Hi mike,
pull the kick panels off behind the pedals. located directly in front of the throttle pedal is an aluminum air manifold that contains the air/electric switches for your brake lights low air etc... find the one for low air (usually has a tag hanging off the wires) check for continuity through it with your air pressure above 80psi. it should be open. if not replace it.

good luck,

Matt
