Muzz Posted September 18, 2005 Share Posted September 18, 2005 For some reason, even when my handbrake isn't on the light wont go off. Even when it does go off, when i take the car above 3,000RPM it comes back on and flashes at me...any ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ryanrs Posted September 18, 2005 Share Posted September 18, 2005 its the handbrake light switch.. lift off the plastic cover and gater around the handbrake lever.. then look underneith the handbrake its self.. you will see 1 (poss 2) wires going into a black push switch (poss with a small spring round it), that is pushed in when the handbrake is off. this switch gets filled with shite and needs either cleaning or replacing.

BlairM Posted September 18, 2005 Share Posted September 18, 2005 Handbrake / brake fluid reservoir is the same indicator IIRC. Just needing some fluid, which is worrying as it shouldn't go anywhere unless there's a leak in the system or your pads /disc are needing replaced Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muzz Posted September 18, 2005 Author Share Posted September 18, 2005 (edited) Well i have cleaned the switch so hopefully it's that. Otherwise ill be putting my cossie brakes on a bit quicker than i thought (Only because i haven't been arsed lately ).
