Thread: parking brake light???

couple days ago on a real cold day my parking brake came on when i accelerated.......it doesnt stay on but it will come on if i hit the gas heavy and it stays on for a couple mins after that.......... has this happened to nebody else ???

sorry lolol

is it the park brake light, or is it just the brake light? Is the fluid full?

if it's the parking brake light try and set the parking brake, and release it... and after you release it, pull up on the pedal a bit. coud just be the switch... but yeah, if it's not the parking brake light, check the fluid level

its the emergency brake .... i put it down and released it cause i got all scared at first lol i thought i drove all the way to work with it on but then i realized it just came on so thats when i tried puttin it down and releasing it but it didnt work........ ill check the fluid idk if that is it tho ,but i will let u know

k i will try

i tried to pull it up after releasing it and that didnt do nehting and i checked the brake fluid it was a lil low but nothing to worry about....ne other ideas????

pull the wire off the switch and see if it goes out

what wire ..what switch lol

the one at the parking brake, if it stays on the problem is somewhere else, if it goes out it's the switch or pedal

i added more fluid and it went off so u guys were right lol.....it wasnt that bad idk i guess it was tellin me it was low thanks for the help
