I just replaced my wheel cylinders and now I can't get my parking brake light to go off. I tried bleeding the brakes again, and I tried loosening (extending) the brake adjuster screw and it's still on. I can't figure it out...any thoughts?

Parking brake light on after wheel cylinder change

You did bleed the system right? Both front and back?
If so, you need to reset the combination (proportioning) valve, on the front crossmember. There's a rubber nipple covering the button, but you should be able to jsut push it in with your thumb.
If the light pops back on again, however, it's due to a difference in pressure...
