line lock on 73 duster ?

I hate to say yer doin it wrong, but....
First you step on the brake, hard.
Then you engage the button (which is usually "M-O", or momentary-on) to energize the solenoid, and keep the button engaged. This locks the brakefluid in the line and thus the front brakes stay locked on.
Then you take your foot off the brake, still keeping the button "on". This releases the rear brakes.
This keeps the car from rolling at the start-line,with a stick-shift car.
Or allows massive burn-outs without burning up the rear shoes.heehee


If you apply the line-loc button first,then you are preventing brake-fluid from going out to the front system.So if you then step on the pedal, the fluid cannot move, and the pedal feels rock hard. That would be normal.And since the piston in the M/C cannot move, you would not have any brakes at all. Also normal.

looks to me that is what he said. o.p., if the solinoid is still there, just wire a hot wire running thru the momentary switch , and ground the other at the solenoid. like he said, transbrake switch maybe ?
