The audible alarm, ding ding ding, wont shut off in my car. I changed batteries and there are other messasges displayed on the dash such as air bag, parking brake. When I depressed the parking brake lever to release the brake, something snapped, broke. There is no resistance now on the parking brake pedal. How can I shut this alarm off? I don't want to fix the air bag or parking brake. It is a 1500.$ Car. Thx. Notapro Mike

You try hitting parking brake release if a handle then pull pedal up otherwise you'll have to grab parking brake cable with vice grips and pull cable to reset it.

Thanks. I will try it. On my other Bonneville the right side rear taillights quit working. The left side works fine. Are these fused separately? What fuse is it? I have 1fusebox under the hood on the passenger side and 1 under the backseat but none are labeled for the taillights. Thx. Mike

They are fused the same check bulbs then see if there is power to it with brakes applied. Maybe a short in system
