    Brake light

    I have a '93 (auto - 95,000 mi.)The brake light will not shut off. Wondered
    if this is something to have checked, or could it just be a faulty switch
    in the emergency brake?
    Thanks!!

    If you mean the brake light on the dash, the wire below the shift
    console may have become pinched. Instructions on removal of the
    console are at http://www.miata.net/garage/miata_radio_removal.html

    Thanks, I'll check it out... I had the console off a couple of weeks ago to
    replace the window switch, so I may have pinched something...

    or it could be a warning of impending doom, from the low-fluid warning
    sensor in the brake fluid reservoir at the master brake cylinder.

    Good point. If the brakes fail, drive into something that is cheap
    and strong.

    Thanks again! It was low brake fluid... I filled it up, and I'll keep a
    close eye on it

    According to the bottom of
    http://www.stoptech.com/whitepapers/warped_rotors_myth.htm
    it is probably a sign your brake pads may be gone.

    Thanks to Dave for the ref.
