Brake light on
 
Took my rear out to do some work and when I put it back in the brake light is on and wasn't before. I have no leaks and bled the brakes. Will the parking brake being out of adjustment cause this?

Very could. Only time mine comes on, is when I pull the e-brake handle so I would suspect that is just the cause of the light being on. Sure the handle is ALL the way down? My light turns on, at only 1 click up..

Mine turned on RIGHT before the first click. Check it.

Yeah it's all the way down. I used some pliers to grab the cable and hook it back on the lever on the brakes. I might have pulled it out too far. Not sure if that's posible.

If you pushed down on the brake pedal while there were no brakes hooked up to the rear, then a little switch on your master cylinder will have to be reset to get rid of the brake light. I'm working on my rear brakes too...
