Hand brake light flickering

Ok, i have a brand new hand brake switch and the wiring has been checked on the switch and the brake fluid resevoir and all has been tested and is sweet but the light still comes on and goes of on it's own accord. Could it be the switch itself on the resevoir? This is the only thing we can think of or have i missed anything else?

Cheers

Is your brake fluid level correct?

My handbrake light flickers on and off occasionally, think its needs a bit of gentle adjustment on the actual brake switch itself.

It could be a very slight earth somewhere in the system, dodgy plug or something thats sometimes in contact with the chassis?

errrm, thats it from me
