V6 Parking Brake warning lamp comes on intermittently
Brake fluid levels are fine. I cleaned up the electrical contacts on the brake fluid reservoir, but the parking brake light on the dash comes on intermittently - any ideas ?

hand-brake, or pedal-operated brake?

My friend has that problem and we found that the wire for the brake fluid level sensor on reservoir the was cut very slightly, right at the edge of the connector. Other than that, maybe the sensor's going bad?
