Hand brake light

[Tornado-red_gti]

When I accelerate, my handbrake light comes on!!!
Sometimes it flashes othertimes it just stays on!
I thought it was just that my back discs were siezed up but even after I have driven for 10-15 mins it still comes on.
 Any ideas would be greatly apprieciated.
 Thanks

sounds like a loose connection somewhere. have a look at the switch under the handbreak cover and see what thats doing?

I'll have a look in the morning.
I hope it is just that.

cheers

Try unplugging the wiring plug that goes into the cap on the brake fluid reservoir.

agree with 6, i had the same problem and it cured it there and then, best bit is its free too

Check the brake fluid is the correct level

I used to get this and thought it was funny so i left it. Just told people it was my warp speed light!   

I think the problem was with a loose sensor wire on the handbrake lever.
