Park Brake Light ??

95mustanggt · 02-07-2001, 10:20 AM

Over the last week or so every time I hit the brakes hard my parking brake light comes on. When the car slows down the light goes off.

Could a sensor be loose or something? Could this have anything to do with the recall?

Your brake fluid reservoir is low, add some brake fluid.

I believe Mach is right on this one..If it keeps doing it after you fill, check the brake fluid again. If its low again, you have a leak somewhere probably in the lines.

Also if you notice a leak, check the wheel cylinders. Oh wait, I don't know if the SN95's have drums in the back still. If they do, check the wheel cylinders.

It's got 4 Wheel discs. Thanks for the responses guys. I was going to service the brakes here pretty quick, but my wifes cavalier is giving me more problems (head gasket has already gone, only 55,000 miles).

I almost have her convinced to buy a new V6 Stang though

! Told her a convertable V6 would be great for her, hopfully she bites one day here.
