stop and handbrake light?

[Austin-182]

anyone got any ideas when sometimes going round a long corner the stop and handbrake light come on?

brake fluid low possibly

Yep, pads may be worn resulting in levels dropping.

i have this same problem and i replaced my discs and pads front and back and it still comes on mainly round corners but also whilst driving, so maybe the break fluid is low where abouts will i find it as that is the one thing i can't find under the bonnet?

your brake fluid shouldn't get low..unless you have a leak, or the guy that changed your pads/disks let some out and never topped it up...

iirc its under the engine cover??

i seem to remember the guy at the garage taking it off to replace my pads..

but im sure a search of the forum will bring up the answer...
