Maybe possible the parking brake sensor isnt fully deactivating even when the handle is down? IS there any slack in the handle when it's fully released?

I had a car once that the parking brake cable was rusty and when you released it the handle would go down as though it was released, but i could always pull the handle a little. I would have to get under the car to pull the cable by hand for the light to go off. Once i did that i noticed there was no more slack in the parking brake handle.

this happen to my car.. the ebrake doesnt deal with the ABS nor visa versa
and fluid evel has nothing to do with ABS and Ebrake together

the only thing that will fix it is a new abs module in the drivers side kick panel

i had numerous threads about this when it happen to my car..
