Default Two little problems...

I have a 98 2.0L Tiburon with the following probs...
1) The handbrake warning light on the dash is always on!...how should I investigate this? The parkbrake itself appears to work fine.
2) The window washer pump for the front windscreen stoped working, although the rear one works fine.
Thanks...

i believe that on your car the washer pump for the front is in the bottom of the bottle..try taking the washer fluid bottle out and seeing if there is indeed a little motor, or two in the bottom...

as for the brake light...check your brake fluid level...some cars turn this light on when the brake fluid is very low, or if the brake pads are very low/rotors are very thin..

not so, the washer pump is a by-directional one (turn clock wise for front & counter clock wise for rear (or is it the other way)), and need to be replaced.
