First check and replace if needed your brake pads. Second check and refill if necessary your brake reservoir. Do it in that order otherwise you'll have spilled brake fluid next time your replace your brake pads.

Could be the sensor too.

I still think it's your brake fluid. It really needs to be TOPPED off.

Well how much fluid is in there? Is it at the top mark or the bottom mark?

Turning your rotors has nothing to do with it.

Have you checked your pads yet?? How much friction material is left on them? Be sure to check both the inboard and outboard pads.

It is one thing thing that will make the e-brake light come on. Hum, maybe you have a bad cap/sensor. Try re-tightening the cap as it may be loose or something.
