I've had my '13 1500 Express for close to 6 months now. For the past few weeks I've had to park on the hilly part of my driveway, so I've been setting the parking brake. Most times when I disengage it the light stays on. I usually apply and release it again and it's ok. This morning I couldn't get it to turn off, so I took a closer look. It appears that the pedal is not returning as far as it needs to in order to trip the switch. To get the light off, I have to pull the release handle and push the pedal up about an inch. If I don't pull the handle it won't move up any. I'm not sure if the pedal isn't returning all the way, or if the switch isn't adjusted properly and isn't tripping early enough in the travel.
I would normally think the pedal return spring was worn. But, the truck just hit 3 years in service and has less than 30k miles. Also, the pedal comes up violently when I pull the release, so the spring seems strong.
Any ideas or suggestions?
