hi guys i noticed about two weeks ago that my e brake light was on someone told me its because my fluid was low. so about this time last week i filled it back up the light never turned off i drove for about a week. today when i went to change my air filter i noticed this leak and i have no clue where exactly it is coming from and what i need to fix it or if i wil need a new one. here are the pictures any info would be great thanks.

 

If it's not coming from the master cylinder or its lines above it, it's the combination valve itself.

 

alright so what do i need to replace or repair to correct this problem

 

So, are we looking at the proportioning valve in those pics?

Rotated 90 degrees (opposite directions) from vertical in each respective pic?

So, basically you are showing us a tilted and close-up view of this?:



I think I'd want to know what the master cylinder assembly above it looks like.

It could be something as simple as you spilled brake fluid when you were refilling the reservoir after the light on your dashboard came on.

If you wipe the fluid off that area, does it reappear?

 

i did not add fluid today i just took the pics today i will take some more hold on guys

 

here are a few more

 

one more back side

 

replace the prop valve , the lites on because thu fluid spits out thru the leak .and sucks air in so change the valve and bleed the breaks ,that should do it

 

is taking one of these off a junker worth it or no

 

Used is fine.

 

Because of thread differences, 82-88, won't fit late 89 to 92 cars. I'd recommend replacing with the combination valve appropriate to your car (for example, pick one one from a drum car is you have drums brakes).

Looks like spillage to me.
