Brake Fluid !?!?!
 
I know this may sounds stupid but can someone please tell me to check my brake fluid. My E-brake light is staying on, and i was told this may be caused by low brake fluid.
So if someone could describe or give a diagram of where the brake fluid is, i would really appreciate it.
Thanks in advance.

Okay since no one else has answered, I guess I will. If you stand by the front driver's side wheel and look at the engine, there is a canister with a brown cap to the right of the air filter box kinda by the strut housing. Unscrew the cap and check the level.

when you open the cap on the brake fluid reservoir take a whiff...if it's a godawful putrid stench you've got the right one =)

your maxima should take the usual DOT 3 brake flud (can get it everywhere...wal-mart has it pretty cheap)

this might all be labeled on the little dipstick too.
