Got the first problem with my silvia :nod:

Today I fitted new discs, pads, lines and callipers to the front of my car.
I also took apart rear callipers greased and cleaned them and bled all four corner with new fluid.

Everything seems to work fine -front and rear- and the hand brake isn't stuck on and brake fluid is at the correct level.

I checked the electrical connector going to the master cylinder and that looks ok too, only thing i did around the cylinder was take off the filler cap to add brake fluid. The car doesn't have wear indicators on the pads so it ain't that either.

Does anyone have an idea why the hand brake light is always on now? :confused:

the handbrake switches to earth under the handle, if it happens again, just have a look at that :)
