I'm a little confused.... it use to be that my e-brake light on the gauges only came on when my ebrake was set. As of recently - every time i brake hard - my ebrake light comes on in the cluster.... without the e-brake engaged. This is confusing the crap outta me... i thought it might be some signal to change brake fluid or something - anyone else have this problem before?

that light comes on for 2 reasons. 1 is the ebrake and 2 is to tell you your brake fluid is low.
pop the hood and take a look at the brake fluid level. if it is low, get the car checked out to find the source of the leak. normally brake fluid should never go low on its own, and it it totally leaks out, you will have no brakes at all. -------------------- 15PSI - 30MPG - Megasquirt Tuned
