Handbrake is on or your brake fluid is low.

^ you need to check your brakes and make sure it's not time to change them. also check for LEAKS as even when brakes are worn down, they should never trip the brake light. I have had my car close to 9 years and even when the pads are all the way down, no brake light but the fluid was near the MIN mark.

true. mine only came on when it was cold. (when i got off work at 4am) but refilling the brake fluid solved the problem, hasn't came on since. Does anyone know a way to see if the timing belt etc. was ever done without service history?
