  • Brake warning light

    My hand brake light has started being half iluminated when driving, thought I needed to check my brake fluid but it's fine any ideas?

    It's the level switch on the top of the master cylinder gone a bit duff. Unclip the wire from it until you can get a new one.

      Also check your handbrake is going all the way in, and its also a low vacuum warning light.

        That gives me a few things to check I'll undo the wires to the resivior if that stops it then I know it's that, great this forum really pleased I got a surf and found it. Just got back from taking brother inlaw to heathrow, sat in traffic on m25 for nearly 2hrs ( it was only one jct) and the surf behaved fine do find the inside gets hot when heaters on cold think its the rear heater maybe or just heat from the motor?

          You get a lot of heat soaking up through the floor from the exhaust/turbo and from the auto transmission. Think of it as an energy saving feature

            Yeah it comes up inside the centre arm rest / storage bit on mine, you can keep pasties warm in it!
