Battery and Brake light

[HalfNakedWalrus]

Have you scanned for ABS codes?

I have a scanner but nothing for ABS has ever popped up, just a 420 code :/

Alright! Calipers, rotors, pads, AND brake fluid have all been replaced. Still have a brake light.

Booo.... Might also be worth checking the handbrake switch to make sure it's not stuck on. Continuity check on the switch when it's unplugged, and voltage check when the car's on. Same with the brake fluid level switch.

I'd think if the ABS had an issue it would trigger the ABS warning light, not the parking brake light, but alternator triggers the brake light, so anything is possible.

This is golden info! I was beginning to wonder if it was something this simple! I'll look into this.

The whole dang switch is gone!! the wire was just attached to the chassis!! what in tarnation lol

Uhhhh.....eh?!

Does the light turn off if the wire is disconnected from the chassis? If so, was that light on the whole time you had the truck, then? There should be a connector on the end that would go into the switch; is that gone, too?

I'm not aware of any differences in the hand brake setup between Baja years...

Just had clutch and head gaskets done. These lights are coming on sporadically for me now.
