Default Parking brake light.

Hey everyone.

After driving my 08 f150 5.4 for 70 kms or more my parking brake will randomly come on. Once I turn her off and on again the light goes away. It's not throwing any codes either. Any suggestions??

Check your brake fluid level. It could be low enough to just keep the level-sensor happy until you start moving. Usually that light coming on by itself doesn't point to a major issue, unless the ABS light comes on with it.

My 08 comes on at startup and sometimes goes out..sometimes not..lol..drives me nuts..Our '10 f150 worktruck had the PB and abs light on..found it to be a wheel sensor gone.
