e-brake light/system

[Bouchal]

I own a '95 Corolla Dx. My e-brake froze last winter and the light won't come off now . The cable seems ok, and I can still use my e-brake. Besides the back brakes being worn down and the light not turning off, its ok. Does anyone have any ideas on how to check the e-brake system.

umm, pull the plastic's off around the brake handle and you should find a switch with one wire onit, when its earthed the brake light should go on

The light in the dash stays on. I'll check that out, thanks.

yea sorry i got mixed up hehe

but yea you will find a switch on the bottom of your brake leaver under the plastic that controls that light, maybe its stuck?...

check your brake fluid level as well, if its low this will also leave your e-brake light on all the time
