Parking Brake Light Will Not Turn Off - but Parking Brake works! Any ideas?

[Snowbelt Spyder]

Everything looks normal on my RT and is working properly. Took off the tupperware and looked at the wheel and the sensory switch, and the motor comes on and opens and shuts like it is supposed to, but the light stays on. Even pushed the sensory switch down manually with my finger and the brake light stays on, which leads me to think that the sensory switch module is bad. Also noted that the back brake pads are getting really thin; I was planning to replace them next oil change, but I might need to do that sooner. Disconnected the battery to reboot everything with no luck. Any ideas or suggestions?

Note: The parking brake light is not blinking, but staying on solid.

Hey Leon, start simple and work your way up. As stated above, low fluid level also causes that light to stay on steady when the parking brake is disengaged, 99% of the time, that's the only issue. Top off both chambers in the reservoir (see Pic), check the diaphragm under the cap to ensure that it hasn't expanded out (push it back in if it has), check the floats that they aren't stuck. After that, it is simple enough to use a multimeter to test the micro-switch. Because your motor runs just fine, it is probably not the electronic module.

After a time delay, you may receive the orange Brake Failure Screen in the center display. Don't turn the key off. Pull up the code at that point. C0049 is Low Fluid Level.
