    First be sure Parking Brake is all the way back.
    Look on the parking brake for a switch, if you unplug an the the light goes out, it is out of adjustment or a broke switch.

    Those switches are "normally open " and only çlose when the handle is pulled. If the brake releases and the car drives properly, it more likely a switch rather than a loose wire. The only way I could see a loose wire causing that would be when the hot side gets loose and falls across the cold side of the switch.
