Hi all.. I am pretty sure I already know the answer, but I want to confirm.

I am getting the following red symbol: ((!)) and my E-Brake light is flipping on.

What gives? What's the manual say is the cause?

Thanks!

 

I'm pretty sure that symbol is for low tire pressure.

 

its cold in Colorado fill your tires with some air get them back to 32psi or w.e. the evo calls for


edit : pretty sure the tire pressure light is yellow...so this must not be it.

 

This warning shows up on braking/acceleration, then blips off. Don't think it's TPS.. manual states exactly what it is, but I don't have it in the car.. =(

 

I had a similar issue when I removed the console housing for the e brake. There is a clip for the sensor, which can bind if it is assembled improperly. This can cause the e brake light to come on when the brake is off.

I would take the console apart and check the wiring to the brake.

 

Thanks - I had taken the console off in the past, I'll look into this.

 

Low brake fluid?

This.

 

Facepalm.. didn't even consider looking, ugh. I'll also put that on the checklist.

 

Winner.

Thanks all. Pads are worn way down, brake fluid isn't even visible in the reservoir on driver side firewall. Grrr.. new pads time.

 

You're welcome haha! =P

Sometimes the obvious problem becomes too obvious. It says brakes, why look at something else
