AnswerIndicator light on dash? Check fluid level in master cylinderMake sure parking brake is fully releasedCheck Brake fluid levelI have a 1996 Tacoma 2.7L and my brake indicator light on the dash is always on. So- here's how to check what's wrong... Start truck, release parking brake, if light is on, push the parking brake handle in/towards dash, if light goes off then you have a bad spring (like my truck does) or the like on the parking brake handle. That's all. Sometimes when I drive, I push it in/light goes off and then the handle works it's way out again and the light comes back on.

3rd brake light or rear brake lights?
push your parking {emergency} brake down one click. that not enough to engage the brake or cause any drag on the brakes , but the truck will think its parked, as the daytime runnig light switch on the e-brake pedal will disengage. only one setback though, the brake light on the dash WILL light.
The parking brake needs adjusted, Look under the drivers side body and you will see 1 long cable coming from the front of the cab and running towards the rear close to the frame and just behind the cab or were the bed panel starts you will see that cable going to a bracket that has a long stud- bolt in it and then you will see 2 cables that head towards the rear wheels. Tighten the nut or stud that's in the bracket, and it will start to tighten the 2 cables that go to the parking brakes in the rear. Adjust it a little at a time tell the parking brake in the truck starts getting tighter and until it holds the truck from moving. If you adjust the cables to tight then the parking brakes will drag NOT GOOD. When you think your done and the parking brake is kinda hard to push and it will hold the truck from moving. Check yourself by putting your truck in neutral with parking brake off. And it should roll, If not then loosen cable up a little till it does roll free when not ingauged.
