440 handbrake light permanently on

Feb 23, 2004 2 Replies

My g/f has a Volvo 440 whose handbrake light stays on permanently - we can't find the owners manual to troubleshoot this, and the brakes seem fine - could someone please look up the problem in the manual and get back to us with the likely problem?



Thanks


Find the switch under the handbrake lever and disconnect the wire going to it. If the light now turns off, then your switch is not adjusted properly or defective.
