just wondering if anybody has ran into this problem before. e-brake light stays on constantly. before it did that it would stay on whenever i turned on hit the brakes really hard. if anybody has a solution i would like to know??

 

Possible leaking brake cylinder out rear.

 

the master cylinder is low, fill it with fluid and it will go out BUT find out were it went! leak? front brake pad really worn or???

 

only two things make that light come on one the ebrake is on two your brake fluid is low. or i guess a grounded wire somewhere but start with the first two.

Basically, if it's not a wiring issue, you're low on fluid. Try and find out where the fluid is going

 

well i know its not a grounded wire cause i checked that first and the e brake is definetly not on. I havent checked the fluid so im sure thats it.

 

i have the same issue. mine is a leaking wheel cylinder.

 

If your master cylinder is leaking, replace it with a new one. Don't try and make a bootleg repair. Never half-*** something as important as your brakes. Good luck, and let us know how you fixed your issue. This post will be worthless under a search later if there is no answer/ conclusion.

 

wow friend had the same problem, i alwayz thought it was ground wire but i guess ill tell him to check for leaks, thx for the tip.

 

thats right. do it once and do it right. well i put some fluid in it and the light went off. its about time it was driving me insane seeing it all the time. it seemed like it was leaking from the booster so a new one will be going on soon. Thanks for the help!

 

try tightening your ebrake cable,, thats what happened to me.
