faulty sensor/emergency brake stuck partially on
This issue could mean that the fuse on the indicator light is blown. This could also mean that the brake fluid is low on the vehicle.
usually the brake fluid reservoir is clear and therefore you will see the level of the fluid. if not the lid will have a level indicator.
You need a blub or your brake fluid is low.
Could be, Low on brake fluid, Parking brake not fully retracted, Problem with the brake system, Have a trusted mechanic inspect the brakes soon.
it is an indicator. You need to check your brake fluid or your bulb.
It could break, rust through, or get cut by an impact.
It could be one of serveral things. - Low brake fluid. - Parking brake is on or slightly on. - If the brake pedal has been pushed all the way to the floor. Check the fluid and parking brake first then go to plan B.
My friend has an 87 honda. If the brake fluid reservior on the 87 is not completely full the level indicator will energize the brake light. Maybe yours is a similar problem. dg_8
DOT ( 3 ) brake fluid
If the parking brake isn't on , check the brake fluid level in the brake master cylinder in the engine compartment and see if it is low
usually the parking brake sensor is malfunctioning [or the fluid is low check this first]
