84 500sel brake light on, need help

Car sat for a year before I got it and the parking brake light is on all the time. I checked the fluid level(good) the handbrake works great.
Can anyone help with troubleshooting the problem. Thanks Convert

85 500 SEL
There are two fluid levels, one for the front and one for the back, did you check both?
