master cylinder?will the pedal sink when applied?if the pedal goes below a certain point it will trip the light.

I was considering the master cyl. The pedal goes low enough to not be able to get my other foot under it. Pedal seems normally functioning and does NOT fade away. Just seems low. All e brake functions are good, tested the pedal, switch, wiring, nothing from it makes the light go out. I jumped the light swithon the abs unit.. no change. Not sure why there is no low fluid level sensor but , it does not have one.. thanks

Make sure your parking brake pedal comes all the way up, while holding the release pull on the pedal with you hand. Does the light go out then? If not disconnect the switch for the parking brake, if the light goes out that is your problem. If the light goes out when you manually pull the pedal you most likely have parking brake cables that are not sliding freely or the return spring on the pedal is broke or is worn out.

I have the almost the same problem my brake fluid level is fine and I don't have a sensor on the resivior I think it might be the sensor on the peddle but I can't even find that cause mine looks nothing like all the examples.
