#117268, "If the fluid is full and the light goes out"
In response to In response to 5


          

when the weather outside gets warm. Here is the problem. When the weather gets cold the e-brake cables constrict which makes them a bit tighter. You can adjust the light switch under the center console, next to the T-attachment joint where the e-brake cables come together(do not know the exact names). There is a small rod that connects that T-attachment to the e-brake handle itself. When the cables get tighter it pushes on the brake light switch regardless if the handle is pulled. This is also a good way of knowing if your cables are adjusted too tight. Mine used to do this when it was below zero degrees and then go away when it warmed up. I adjusted it(slightly loosened)and it took care of the problem. There is not a sensor on the brake pads themselves and the only way to know they are worn is the squeal. If you take your wheels off every 6K miles to rotate your tires then check your pads at that time.
