I'm looking for either guidance on how to repair a hole that was drilled into the tail panel of my 1968 Coronet500. The person doing the body work said that because it's aluminum, it can't be fixed with metal work,
I was able to unplug the one off the valve and the light does go off. When i engage the parking brake, the light does come on, so the problem is now isolated to the actual braking system or switch that's on the valve.

Ok, got it. That provides a good amount of detail.
So, is there anything wrong with me just unplugging the wire if I have no intention of using the parking brake?
