Ok so a few weeks ago I noticed that the hand brake light would come on under WOT. First I double checked the brake reservor and notice it was a little low,...so I filled it. About 1 1/2 weeks later the same light comes on and the reservor is low again. I decided to check for leaks. I checked all the way back to the rear brake lines, when I noticed that the rear right brake where the hand bake linkage is connected was wet. I tried to see where exactley it was leaking from on the brake and from what I could tell it was draining down from where the parking brake was connected( It looks like a spring is on top of this part or something) Anyway does this mean I have to get new calipers? If so would u suggest going with the stock parts from the dealer (I have a 93 fd by the way..w/stock brake system) or the 99 brake calipers from http://www.rx7store.net/category_s/52.htm or is it possible to just get that one fixed for the time being?



Oh yea one more thing....HELP.

 

If you have leaks coming from the caliper then you need to rebuild the caliper.

 

i have the exact same problem (light under WOT) but have not tracked down the cause yet, i will check my calipers thanks!

 

Check to see that you are not low on fluid first. I found that my leak was a bad rubber clutch line between the slave and the reservoir. It had nothing to do with the brakes.
