That would indicate a leak somewhere, but I've also seen low brake fluid level trip the light. Double check the parking brake, make sure you didn't catch the parking brake pedal incidentally when getting in or out of the car. Scott B. "I'm a self-made man...

I occasionally catch the the E-brake and have to either pull the release and/or pull the release and put my foot behind the pedal "Multiple Magnum owner since 1978!!" https://www.facebook.com/groups/146952895354657/
