Brake Warning Light

[chim450]

I have only had the Tuscan a few days, but the brake warning light is coming on and off. I have checked the clutch/brake fluid level and it does seem a bit low.

The car has just had a new clutch fitted (not by a TVR garage) and thinking about it the gear selection was a bit stiff compared to other Tuscans I have driven.

I am hoping that they did not top up the fluid enough after fitting the clutch and that there is no leak.

Which brake/clutch fluid can you use in the Tuscan? I am going to top up the reservoir and see whether this cures the problem.

The TVR recommended fluid is Mobil Universal Brake and Clutch Fluid SAE J1703. I know this is used in my car after picking it up from its recent service.

You sure it's not the hanbrake warning light? Mine did the same....with the handbrake off, feel under the gaiter for the switch, and give it a shoogle

My handbrake had the same problem with the switch.It wasn't triggering it when lowered,i had to wiggle it a little.Doesn't do it now.Kinda got used to doing it without knowing it.

Topped up the brake reservoir, the light has gone out. I just hope I don't have a leak,. Time will tell.
