Under hard acceleration <20 mph the handbrake light turns on, then turns off (the hand brake is fully disengaged the whole time). Anyone know what this means? The manual doesn't have this scenario, but mentions low brake fluid...

 

Low brake fluid. Check your pads. As they wear, the fluid level in the reservoir goes down.

 

Couldnt have said it better myself

 

thanks, that sounds right. I should be ok driving from pitt to jersey and back (~240miles one way) right? I'm driving today and I'd rather replace them next week prbly.

 

Ya, you should be fine for now... but you'll need to check it out soon.

 

thanks everyone
