Yep, I've tried releasing the handbrake :)
Does the light double up as a wear indicator (I don't think so), or can it warn you of low fluid? (I've checked and it isn't low). Or is it a simple case that the switch/wire on the handbrake is broken? I've just done a trackday and the brakes took a pounding :(. Anyone else had this problem? Justin |
Low brake fluid, probably because your pads are low.
|
2nd the above, low fluid level...

I've had this. Could be a few things. Low brake fluid, which is prob what it is. Could also be worn pads, or possibly the little switch that turns the light on/off could be stuck, sounds silly, but mine did stick, because it was gunked up, clearing it off fixed it.

Yep, like Markus said, check that the float hasn't got stuck.

Thanks guys
Where is the float? I've checked the fluid and its gone down a lot but its still between min and max. Going to change the fluid soon anyway. Pete I think you're right about the pads, however like the numptie I am I can't check them until my new McGard wheelnut key arrives :rolleyes: Can't get my trackday wheels off either :( It looks like I need new rear pads, Pete do you have Pagid rear FR for MY95 in stock? Thanks Justin |
You can get an idea of the pad wear by looking through the wheel. If the backing plate is flush with the carrier, then they are new.
The reservoir is over the turbo, to the left of the clutch reservoir (you'll see the large black, round servo attached to it. No rears in stock until Thursday. |
Thanks
Expect an order on Friday :) Justin |
Aye, I had this as well, after a fluid drain and top up all was fine and dandy !
cheers Alex |
Just to update, the float was indeed stuck.
Thanks all :) Justin |
