Just wondering if you guys have had this problem before, when i take any corner fast the parkbrake light comes on ((!)), you know the one, yeh what do u reckon the problem could be and if you know - how the hell do i fix it??

Cheers.

pull up/off the cover to the handbrake (if centre mounted handbrake) and u will see a wire going to a spring loaded pin. just adjust it so the gap is a bit bigger when the lever is down. Probally is very close and when corning, either cable is having more pressure on it or car twisting (most unlikely the case) just the slightly enough to cause the contact to trigger off the light. Well similar thing happened to mine, but i hated the light so just disconected the wire plug from the hand brake leaver, so when doing handies the light doesn't flash in my face.

oh yeah another thing i just remembered, ur brake light on the dash also comes on when ur brake fluid is low. So make sure ur fluid level is up.
