Parking Brake Warning Light Won't Shut Off

[4Bangin]

My Parking Brake Light won't shut off, when I put the parking brake down it dims a little but won't shut off, brake fluid is fine, even the plastic thing inside the brake resevoir cap is in the right position, is there any other sensors or anything that would cause the light to stay on?

First, parking brakes are cable, not hydraulic, so yer master cylinder has nothing to do with the problem. The most likely source is a fried switch, but if I were you I would ignore it, as there is no point for that light in the first place.

The only problem is Im going to be installing my Turbo Timer tomorrow, and if the light is always on, then the whole "car will shut off if the parking brake is released" feature will not work.

And actually the light is not only for the parking brake its also a warning light for the brake hydraulic system letting you know when brake fluid is low, so it is important and it does have to do with the master cylinder

Hmm. Sorry. I had read in the owner's manual that this particular idiot light was only for the e-brake... Guess I was wrong.
