Why does the build warning light come on my Volvo 940 1994 every time I press down on the brakes when all brake bulbs are working okay?

My 94 940 does the same thing. One or more of the bulb contacts is dirty or not making strong enough contact in the socket.

How do you replace Volvo 850 rear brakes?
To replace the rear brakes on a Volvo 850 you must first remove the old brakes. Then connect all of the wirings to the new brakes including the brake fluid line and the connection for the brake pads.

Because the e brake is hooked into your braking system and that system has a problem.
How do you reset the brake warning light on a 2000 Mercury Cougar?
If your brake warning light is on, and for reasons that you are not aware of, you should NOT be driving this vehicle. If you know what is causing the brake warning light to come on, have remedied the problem, but the warning still persists, then you will have to take your car to a shop that is equipped for working on these brakes. And if the car is equipped with traction control/anti-lock brakes, the system is a lot more sophisticated, and near impossible for the home mechanic to work on anymore.

Why would the anti-lock brake warning indicator stay on in a 1991 Chevy S-10 Blazer?
There is a problem with the brake system, and the light is a warning for you to have it checked by a pro mechanic. Brakes are very important right? In my experience it was a cable that runs to one of the front wheels, it cost me $100 to have it fixed at a shop. It does not harm anything with the light on, it just means you do not have anti lock brakes working.
What does the Mitsubishi Montero owner's manual say about the brake light indicator staying on when the emergency brake is NOT in use?
If your vehicle has separate dash panel warning lights for brakes and emergency brakes, then the e-brake light being on while not engaged may indicate that the e-brake switch may be maladjusted or faulty. If the brake warning light is on, it may indicate a brake fluid leak, or in some cases, low brake fluid levels in the reservoir. If your vehicle has a shared warning light for e-brake and brake warning, all causes listed above could apply.

Why do the rear brakes on a 1992 Volvo seam to not work?
First, please understand that rear brakes do not work as hard as front brakes. The ratio of working is 60% front brakes and 40% rear brakes. Therefore, they do not wear out as quickly. Is this your observation and reason for asking the question? Second, if your rear brakes really are not working, you will experience a longer distance to come to a complete stop. Are you experiencing this? If so, then you really do have a problem with your rear brakes. You will have to check that the brake fluid is flushed (old brake fluid gathers moisture from the air and does not work as well) and you will have to check to see if any of the rear brake parts are "frozen" -stuck in place so that they do not squeeze the brake drum or disk. Please let me know how it goes. Your colleague in New Jersey
Why would the brake warning light come on intermittently but not stay on continuously?
Could be low on brake fluid. This is a sign that the brakes need attention.
