Re: parking brake light stays on
sometimes chevy trucks' parking brake levers will hang a little low and set off the sensor. I have had to wire tie the parking brake up tight on a truck before to stop that problem. See if you can grab the brake lever and move it up and down a little bit. If so, wire tie it up to the dash somewhere

Re: parking brake light stays on
Strange that it's blinking. Definitely get it looked at. Mine came on and stayed on and I unplugged the wires from the rwal unit and plugged them back in and the light went out. Had my system checked prior to having this suggested to me and the shop said my ABS system was shot too. Don't know if it is or not, but at least the light is out and I've had 3 shops now confirm my brakes work fine.
