Emergency brake light is staying on!

OutKast09 · July 31st, 2009, 10:27 AM

Every time i'm driving the stupid brake light come on. the only time it doesn't come on is if im accelerating kinda fast, but even then when i'm in between shifts the light come back on the second I put the clutch down and i don't know if the brakes are actually on or not cause it still rolls. anybody know what this is or should i just go ahead and take it to a shop?

i think i do, that happened to my car when i first got it, the brake light switch on the lever came off and is just sitting in the center console. you can check it by opening up and taking out the center glove box, there is only a few screws and a clip holding it, just pull up, and you will see the switch there.

Check your brake fluid. If it is low, it will come on. Happened to me when my front brake line was leaking.
