Well...it diminishes by about 50%. What might be up with that? The light wasn't working at all when I got the car. The switch, under the handle needed some cleaning and lube, and then operated prefectly up until my drive today. Brake seemed to be all the way released since she rolled easily on a slight incline, but the light only dimmed...didn't go off.

The fiero has a very similiar setup. After not using the ebrake for awhile the caliper and cable gets gummy and sometimes I have to put a heavy flashlight on the lever and drive awhile and it will finally settle back all the way down and depress the switch completely.
