Parking break light

When I make sharp turns going at moderate speeds usually like 25 and up the parking break light in the dash will come on, but not the brake itself, is the light just malfunctioning?

Check the level of your brake fluid, that is all I can think of. When the fluid is low the light stays on, but sometimes when it starts to get low it will come on intermitently (spell?).

If it's not the brake fluid, try re-soldering the idiot cluster, that's what mine needed!
