bake fluid, ABS if you have it isent working correctly, switch for the e-brake is misaligned giving a false reading are the most probable ones.

no abs...

its a track car......so its lighten'd to the max...


I don't think its an pad indication (last time I heard civics don't have that....)

how do I check the ebrake handle for an indicator thing??

you should check the ecu to see if any codes are coming back. if nothing i would check the brake switches. the pedal and the e-brake. good luck
