The parking brake light stays on on my 2001 F350. I have tried disconnecting the plug at the brake fluid reservoir and the plug above the parking brake pedal. Even when both wires are unplugged, the light still stays on. What is the next thing I should check to try and get the light to turn off?

Thanks

Look right above the park brake pedal, there should be a rubber bump stop on the pedal and the switch is above that... See if it's making contact

I checked that, even if I push the plunger up the light still stays on.

Then are you sure it's the park brake light?

Take the switch out and put leads across it to see if it's working

It ended up being the fluid level sensor. I removed it completely from the reservoir and put it back in and now everything seems to be working fine.
