86 bronco dash brake light on

i went to move my bronco today and when i started it it was fine then i notice that when i have the pedal close to the floor the brake light will come on, the parking brake is all the way up, my fluid was a little low so i filled it, no leaks at the lines, the brake switch looks fine, brake lights are good.


where is the sensor on the master cylinder, is it below the master cylinder on a different part where the brake lines meet? their is a new master cylinder on their from when i bought the truck in november

Might be on the proportioning valve. There was a brake sensor on my 78 there.
