Default Have to keep pushing Parking brake lever down :83cgt

or the red parking brake dash light comes on. I've had this problem for years but am to lasy to take a serious look. It's probably the switch under the parking brake lever. Anyone BTDT?

Decent slack in cables - several clicks to get parking brake working. New cables last year didn't make any difference.

Default I believe this is a common prob.

A recent post addressed this, like in the last few days....

I use use my travel cup to jam the e-brake handle over so the light doesn't come on....
