Parking Brake Light Staying On

Had a track day on Saturday, had great fun, ony 15 people showed up and many times I was the only one on the track, how cool is that not to have someone slow you down.

Anyhow my damn park brake light is staying on. NO I never use the parking brake at track sessions. But for some reason it came on after I left the track while I stopped to fill up. Any suggestions before I go troubleshoot this problem.

low brake fluid? How do your brakes feel?

Yeah it was fluid, I topped it off and the light is off. I was checking it after each run, but I guess I forgot after the last run.

that's a lot of pad wear! mine usually only comes on after the pads are about 80% gone... it's still never below about 1/4 full, so I don't worry about it. just push the pistons back a bit and stick some spacer plates behind the pads and I'm good to go until the pads are gone.
