emergency brake light stays on

[erik07112]

I'm new to the Hilux community and my new 91 Hilux I just bought has it's emergency brake light staying on while I drive sometimes. I just the brake fluid and there are no issues there. Any advice as to what else I should check out?

thanks

You mean the brake warning light on the dash? Check the level of the brake fluid
and also the connectors on the reservoir.

Hi erik is the float sticking in the fluid reservoir

"Emergency brake light"? do you mean the fault indicator on the dash?

Nope, they make a squealing noise.

The brake warning light can be four things,
Low fluid.
Float sticking in the reservoir.
Handbrake (emergency brake) not fully released.
Vacuum assist (servo) problem.
