Hi folks!

I had a little problem. Ever since I had my tranny replaced, it has happened twice that after releasing the hand break (leg break... ) the indicator staying on..... which is quite annoying...
It only happens when the temp suddenly drop.. like last night, the temp dropped to -1........ anyone has any idea what to do? Is it under warranty still?

More than likely is a sticky switch or because you said that the temp dropped to -1, your pads are sticking to the rotor. The cable might need a little adjustment. Take it to the dealer to get it re-adjusted.

thanks... I'll take it to the dealer and see what they say...

I had the exact same problem awhile back. The brake indicator would come on if I pushed on the brakes in the early morning and wouldn't go off until I drove for a few miles.

I took it into the dealership and they replaced a sensor in the master cylinder. Only took them like two hours. Problem solved. They probably bumped it or something when they put your new tranny in.

Thanks, sounds like it's the same problem!
Was this under warranty when u did it?

Deity42

Yup. Under warranty, no charge.

Since u have a 2000 TL as well, I am assuming it's a 5 years or 100,000 km warranty thing... that's great... thanks a lot!
