brake light wont go off (94 z28)
Hello again everyone. Im back again with another problem. One of my brake lines busted the other day(main feed, running from front to back). My brake light came on cause the fluid level got low. I replaced the bad part of the line and the lines on the rear axel to my disk brakes. I have filled the fluid and bled the brakes line( Right rear,left rear, front right, front left, 2 different times). My brake light is still on. I can figure it out. if someone could please help me. I just got done replacing the water pump and radiator and distributor about a week ago, and with my luck as always something else goes wrong. If you have any help for me please message me. Thank you guys so much .

If you had a lot of air in the ABS unit, you need to bleed the entire system again. Some of the air in the ABS unit could have been pushed into the lines to the wheels. You start with the ABS unit, then proceed to the individual wheel brakes. You can't do it the other way around.
If you did do a complete bleed, starting with the ABS unit, sometimes the switch will stick. Take it out in a WIDE OPEN parking lot, and try a real hard stop. That will sometimes reset the switch.

I agree with Skedaddle. If the pedal feels good, fluid level isn't low and the parking brake lever isn't pulled, I would be willing to bet the switch is stuck. Usually a hard stop fixes it. It's one of those times that beating on your car may actually fix something instead of break it.
