Dude, That happened to me a few months ago. I brought it in to my mechanic and he said that I needed new brakes. I guess it's a signal that you should check your brake system for any problems.

the E brake light has stuff to do with the regular brake......?? i would just check that little switch under the e brake lever to see if it's bad or something.
