    Hopefully the title says it all... Handbrake light/sensor is on permanently even when handbrake is down. Once you move off the beeping sound constantly, goes off until you come to a halt again. Can anyone give me any advice on what to do/ where to take the car to be seen?

    It is just a simple switch (much like a courtesy light switch) under the lever, make sure it is being operated.

    It has been seen to and the switch is working I have been told that it may be a broken wire or something, maybe a new wire to bypass the old broken one is needed?
