Handbrake warning light always on on Citroen C3: what happens?
Years 2016-2023

Answer

If the handbrake warning light remains on even though you have disengaged it, it means that the brake system itself is always slightly in operation, which sends the appropriate signal to the control unit. It is therefore nothing serious, probably only the handbrake cable itself needs to be fixed.
