I was messing around with hard braking tonight and if I got up to about 70 and hit the brakes hard (not slammed, just hard) the e-brake light would come on until about 20-30 MPH and then go off. I checked the e-brake but there isn't anything under it to pull it up or anything. No ABS lights or anything else came on. Any ideas?
E-brake light when braking

that light is also used to tell you about other problems in the brake system.
check your fluid level in your master cyl. as the pads wear out the fluid level drops, so you may just need brakes.

+1 that exact same thing happened to me the pads were worn and the light would come on under a little more heavy braking. I changed the pads and the light went out.

Did you replace front and rear pads? If so you might have other brake issues like a fluid leak

Fluid being low will do it as well because thats basically how it tells if your pads are worn if the fluid drops so fill it up and you should be good to go.
