brake problem

Hi guys, can anyone advise on the following ? We recently have the brake light showing on the dash, is this only a footbrake warning light or does it warn of other things ? The brakes seem OK and fluid is full, but some times when the light comes on and we stop in traffic and push pedal down real hard we get a bang from the rear ? but only sometimes. pads and shoes seem good.

Take a look at your emergency brake and see if it retracts when you let it out.

We have started to loose pressure on pedal know as well, this looks like it may be servo or master cylinder ???
