Brake Warning Light

Changed fluid sensor and brake light still comes on . Parking brake switch is fine. Light goes out when brake sensor is disconnected.I even took sensor out of maste cylinder and held it away to see if light goes out, it did not. Took master cylinder out and turned it upside down to make sure float was free, light is still on , any suggestions? Brake pedal is firm with no leaks

"Changed fluid sensor." Do you mean you changed the brake fluid? If not, it may need changing. Otherwise, the ABS speed sensors may be dirty--clean these using an aerosol brake cleaner. Good luck!
