You are correct. No signal light in the schematic diagram. But each actuator
had an interlock wired in series with buzzer and an ON power controller
contact and an accelerator interlock 15-99. The buzzer would sound in a case
the power pedal was depressed and the drum brakes were not released. But why
such a crazy warning? The signal light would be far better than this
complicated circuit.
