another problem. PARKING BRAKE indicator
so on Saturday i couldn't get my car started and i had my parking brake on. either way, i dont think i released the brake and we pushed the car to the back of the lot.
i just went back there tonight to see if it would start(it didnt) but i noticed the brake light indicator under the high beams indicator was on. i pulled the release and it didnt pop so it wasnt still active but i hope i didnt f**k it up. i pushed the brake in and released it again and it didn't go off. when i turnt the key forward the light went off.
what is wrong with my car? i cant wait to send it off

well i had a problem prior to this one for the car not starting or even cranking(despite the starter that i purchased 20 minutes before. and the 100% battery and less than year old dizzy and alternator). I disconnected the NEG and the light went off until i screw the terminal back in. when i turn the key forward it turns off but when i turn it back and take it out its back on. I also put the PARKING BRAKE on and put it in neutral to push, wouldnt budge and when i took the BRAKE off and tried, it was ready to roll. i sent it to the shop this morning so he can rack his brain on all of it. im just tryin to find possibilities to eliminate guesswork to save time for him
