Gday all

Just wondering if this is a standard issue, when i turn the wheel left the handbrake light comes on, turn right, nothing happens!!

About to go crawl under the car but i thought id ask here too

It has a slight lift, but prob total of about 1.5" rims are stock and tyres are 215/75s

Cheers!

Check ya brake fluid level. Can also be the sensor for the fluid indicator.

As sogone said, check the fluid level.
The hand brake switch is inside the cab on the back of the handbrake lever. The cable runs under one of the seats.

I was serious. Check your brake cylinders, it's likely you are loosing fluid there.
