its the light when your e-brake is pulled....would it be because of maybe a cable is loose, so its not getting the signal right?!?!

First of all check the fluid level and be sure the cap to the master cylinder is securely fastened. If you are loosing brake fluid... look for signs of leaks, oily dirt around the brake wheel cylinders, calipers and connecting lines. If you find this... you may be loosing fluid due to brake part wear. Also check for signs of leakage and/or cracks in the master cylinder and its connecting lines. Good luck.

mine was doing almost the same exact thing, check the fluid level as suggested previously.....if thats not it, have your cable tightened, both happened to me within weeks of each other, it's weird, but it happens
