my break light stays on. it is cold weather and it stays on even though i know the e-brake is not on.

 

it is your brake light switch.... you can repair it if you can get the parts or get another one

 

how

 

you might be low on brake fluid in the master cylinder

 

sounds like lines are grounded out. what is cencor?

 

the brake lights or the "brake" light?

 

just the light inside the car not the actual tail light. maybe it because i washed the motor and it just got wet or moved or somthing

 

check your brake fluid level. then if it's not low you need to replace the brake reservoir cap.

 

could your brake reservoir cap be loose?

 

check your rear window brake light bulb to see if it works. most likely your issue.

 

What year accord is it. If it's a 4th gen I had the same problem the only thing that worked for me was to go to the yard and get another harness for the lights just the part that connects to the bulbs; or just take the light out of the spedo. But u will just have to check your lights every so often to keep the fuzz off ya.

 

i agree with Superslow. On my 96 Accord coupe, the brake light on the dash was on. I told my mom to press the brake pedal for me and turns out the bulb was out. Weird!

Quick test for the brake fluid level sensor, take the cap off and turn it upside down so the float goes to the cap. That light BETTER be off then!
FWIW I've had several people <U>say</U> their brake fluid level is okay, but they are seeing a 'scum' line on the inside of the reservoir; It's best to take the cap off to check the fluid level.

We need the original poster to say which brake warning lamp.

One warning lamp is for handbrake & brake fluid.

Another warning lamp is for burned-out brakelights in back.

I wonder which one he's got? I'm guessing it's the handbrake/fluid warning since he started out talking about the handbrake.
