Hey,

So I got all new brakes today (drums, pads, calipers, lines, etc.) and had them installed at a local shop. When I got home, I noticed the emergency brake light stays on, even when the brake is down. I am taking the car back tomorrow to get checked out, but I was wondering if anyone on here has any ideas of what it could be? I checked the brake fluid, and it was full...

How can I fix it? is it right under the e brake? Are there any other options?

I just find it odd that it happened right when I got the brakes done...

It can only be two things...e-brake...or brake fluid.

Double check the fluid again. Make sure it's full to the top
