E-Brake!!!
 
my e-brake light wont turn off!!! I'm like wtf?! this happened like 3 days ago and I dont know what happened. Could it be from my turbo timer? I have a Greddy one...but I've had this Turbo timer installed for quite a while....maybe loose wiring?

make sure your ebrake is all the way down and the sensor button by the lever isn't sticking, if the little button at the handle is down it triggers the light to go on

low brake fluid

not always brake fluid when i got mine running again it was on for a week or two but then i noticed it off so it must have been a sticky switch

My e-brake light used to light up on my warning cluster when I took sharp turns, but as of late the light stays on even if i'm just sitting there with the e-brake as far down as it will go. It will just go away after a few minutes. What could be causing this? I read low brake fluid, is that it? Could it be some kind of error code of some sort, or is my e-brake cable too lose?

LOW BRAKE FLUID!

I did, just wanted to make sure since the thread creator said his light never turns off, while mine does after a few minuts. I thought it could have been a loose e-brake cable or something.

That is covered in the factory shop manuals. Links for factory shop manuals can be found in the FAQ for FC sticky thread found at the top of this, the 2nd gen RX-7 Technical section.

You can do minor adjustments by removing the hand brake cover and turning the adjustment nut there.
