my hand brake light keeps coming on when im driving, even thoiugh it is fully realeased down. i find it comes on more when i go up a hill , even a slight gradient it happens. cant find anyything in the manuals please help.
it's your brake fluid level, it's low so the sensor detects its low when going up a hill as fluid goes to back of resevoir, then off when fluid meets sensor again. solution, top up brake fluid in engine bay.

Try checking the brake fluid level in the resevoir under the bonnet. If it's a bit low, it tends to trip the sensor in the lid.
