OK- she has sat in the garage for 1 week- left in gear, but I never put the parking brake on in the garage, unless working on the sling. This morning, I figured I ought to run the engine for 10-15 minutes, since the weather is still lousy. Put it in neutral, apply parking brake, and start it up. Normal gauge cycle & start. No parking brake. Tried re-starts, tried starting in gear w/brakes applied, and then putting parking brake on, etc., etc. The brake is mechanically functional when I pull & release the lever-- just no light on the dash. No codes, and could find no info on it. Brake lights work properly...... Anybody else have this, or have any ideas? Not a biggie, (I don't think,) but I hate a trip to the dealer....... (It worked fine last time I used it- always apply parking brake when I am out and about.)
No Parking Brake Light

I am sure there is a trigger switch, Just haven't looked to see where it is.
Check the parts breakdown to located it may just be hung up in the closed position from sitting for a long time.
If it is mechanical you may be able to free it up. -
found the info- above my skill set- guess my dealer can add it to the list, when I get the recalls done.......

I had this issue as well. It was the switch under the e-brake.
The problem here in Canada is that it requires the switch to actually activate in order to reset the code lockout. So I had to get this fixed before I could reset it. Warranty to the rescue again
