Emeregncy brake light

the loner · 2006-06-09T23:55:47+00:00

The emergency brake light warning on the dash stays on, even thought the emerg. brake is off. A new master cylinder was put in last year.I've thought of either a blown light fuse, or low brake fluid level. Any other ideas before I take it to the mechanic?Thanks loner

Don't know where the switch specifically is on the park brake: Mind you I don't have a Honda at this time to verify the exact measuring system in it, but most use a float system. Some times the float gets stuck down and tapping on the reservoir helps; but If you had to leave the sys unplugged I would.

First check the reservoir level and report back; until we know the answer to that question all else doesn't make a difference. IE if the fluid is low, why? a leak or warn parts?
