handbrake light

[nicola cupra]

When i bought my cupra my handbrake light worked now it doesnt it comes on when ignition is on but not when car is started does this make any odds because my MOT is due and im panicing boyfriend says it might be switch on handbrake itself is this right please HELP

Hi i think it would just be an advisory not a fail. prob just the switch under the handbrake itself broken needs replacing

mine came on and went off before i took the hand brake off ended up being a wire on the bottom of the clocks theres a little white plug just touched it an moved the wires an been fine since but not sure on yours cause you say it works when you turn igniton on but might be worth a look at that plug though...
