brake warning light on

I replaced a wheel cylinder because it was leaking and even after bleeding both rear lines for a good while, I get the warning light. Any idea why this would happen and how I fix it?

Re: brake warning light on

Your proportioning valve is stuck. It has one wire going to it and activates the brake light. You must reset it. Google how to do it. I have to run to work or I would go thru it with you.

This should get you a ton of threads on Google from people who've been down that road already:
