I have a 92 Sunny and the red dashboard warning now comes on when the ignition is on. When the handbrake is applied it glows brighter. The car recently had a hard rear shunt. Car is in Cyprus, in UK it would have been written off. Hope you can help.

Hand brake light ;)
Does the symbol on the light look like (!)? If so, the hand brake switch has probably stuck on and allowing residual current to cross the switch
