Hi has anyone had the problem of there handbrake light staying on when the handbrake is of.Mine has just developed this problem the car is a r32 gtr

It is also the brake fluid level warning light - so check your pads and fluid.

The handbrake switch is easy to get to by removing the centre arm rest trim.

Fluid is fine and theres loads of life in the pads ill have a look at the switch

The car now seems to have developed more problems.Took it out tonight pulled up to park the idle went lumpy bouncing between a 1000rpm and 2000rpm.Then on the way home went round a long bend not at speed and the car just cut out pulled over and started it it started straight away.Could all these problems be linked

Limp mode maybe?

My light comes on whether brake or clutch fluid low.

Other issue sounds like an AFM to me - I had the same thing happen.

Stupid me turns out the handbrake light was low fluid.As for the other problem it keeps happening poodling along at 50mph al of a sudden feels like somone has put the brakes on and the engine goes to die unless you drop it down to a lower gear then it goes like normal again

Does sound like it could be AFM's well my old R33 GTR was like that when my AFM's were knackered anyways.
