Re: Handbrake light
Well check the handbrake switch if it is clean.
On the other hand, I think the same light is used to warn you for a low brake fluid level, check this as well ASAP.

Re: Handbrake light
As said Dodo check the brake system.
Maybe somewhere you have leakage.
Then check the brake pads and last the switch of handbrake

Re: Handbrake light
it was low brake fluid
i couldn't find the problem when i went around checking the brakes, but when i changed the brake pads the problem went away, friend told it might be cause the piston thing in the calipers is more compressed and using less fluid, so hey, 2 problems fixed in 1

Re: Handbrake light
Fluid level rises when new thicker brake pads are installed... fluid level always lowers with the grinding of your pads.
