Why does my e-brake light stay on?

[00GSteg]

Mine did that and i flushed out the brake fluid. It has not stayed on since i did that.

i had the same prob on my 98 integ....check to see if your brake level cap is on securely.....once i tightened it never had that problem again

First of all, it's not an "E-brake Light." It's a Brake System Warning Light.

The light illuminates when your PARKING brake is set, to WARN you that your parking brake is set. It will also illuminate if there is a malfunction, or excessive wear in your braking system. The brake fluid level directly corresponds with brake pad wear. If your brake pads are worn out, and your brake fluid reads low, then the light will illuminate to tell you to have the brakes checked out ASAP.

It's like a Check Engine light for your brake system. It serves MANY purposes.

nice post noob. you obviously know what you're talkin about! thats exactly right.

I had that problem and had my buddy at ACURA check it out and its a loose sensor under the e-brake in my armrest eliminator
