sounds like the parking brake ( emergency brake) indicator light. i think your car is way too early for the brake pad warning light. _________________ '86 944 |

It's the emergency brake light, indicating the emergency brake is on.
Look under the handle of the E-brake and you'll see a switch. That's what activates the light. It can come undone and short out, making the light come on arbitrarily. At least, that's what I found on my '80. _________________ '80 924 n/a SOLD |
