Handbrake Light Issue
When I set off my handbrake light goes off when I release it but after a mile or so it comes back on and stays on, brake fluid levels are fine.
It doesn't seem to be sticking but it could be perhaps ?? anyone else seen/have this. |

Either way it involves removing or at least loosening off the entire center console to check. I recently had to remove my center console,to remove the carpet as i had a leak in the car, and carpet was soaking. I found the wire damaged, so lucky i noticed it while it was out, just cut the wire and rejoined. |

I noticed the carpets were soaking about 3 weeks after i bought it. Its a nightmare....!! Sorry to say... First port of call check the plenums, do a search on here plenty pictures showing how to clear, if there flooded water is getting into cab... If you have a sunroof your drain tubes are most likely the cause. again there is guy called Arctic on here with pics. For me there was a leaky screen, again Arctic has pics for that. To dry out carpets most people including me removed the carpets and dried out. i hung mine in the shed with 2 dehumidifiers running for about 2-3 weeks... Big big job to do...the foam under the carpet is about 4 inches thick in areas. My advice is to start a thresh thread on here about your wet carpets. |
