Try pulling the parking brake up by hand see if the light turns off. If that does not work there is a switch at the top of the parking brake pedal that might be stuck. Also check you brake fluid level these cars did come with a brake fluid level sensor that can trigger the light. If you do find the brake fluid level low check for leaks as pressure loss from a leaking line will also trigger the light.

Re: 1992 crown vic prclems

Ok so i did all of that thanks for the help. I decided to take the wheel off and look at the breaks and it was the break pads that were wor down basicly falling off. I am now awear that there is a break pad sensor and if the break light stays on it is worth while to look at the breaks and or rotor.

I suspect that the brakes are wasted like he said and the fluid level has dropped to below the sensor in the master cylinder. No pad sensors on any Crown Vic I know of.

Sort of like when the red oil light comes on to tell you that you're out of oil. LOL
