A tractor park brake force sensing system (101) includes a force sensing switch (120) that is actuated if a tensile force applied to a linkage (107) between a park brake lever (102) and a park brake (105) is adequate to compress a spring (116) in the linkage a pre-specified amount as the park brake lever (102) is moved to a park brake set position. A transmission control unit (130) connected to the force sensing switch (120) and to a tractor motion sensor (136) turns on a solid indicator light (132) if the force sensing switch (120) is actuated, and flashes the indicator light (132) if the park brake lever (102) is moved to the park brake set position and the tractor motion sensor (136) indicates the tractor (100) is moving.
