On my 2014 Tundra Extreme, the parking brake warning light comes on and beeps at me about every two minutes. Called AMDS, and their mechanic said the only thing he can figure is that the sensor went out on it he wouldn't tell me where it was or how to fix it. Do y'all have any experience with this? My brakes work fine, and the parking brake lever just broke off (Unfortunate meeting with a willow!), so it's not stuck on. I've been driving it all winter with it beeping, same fuel mileage as previous winters.

My expedition starting beeping at me this year, I have to push the brake back out. I don't know if there is a spring in there that broke or what, but for some reason the brake stays depressed just a little bit, and if I don't manually push it out, it beeps at me. Annoying.

try call Compeuas tell them you are in a remote location this is what you are looking for and I bet they will help you find it. AMDS sucks I refuse to do business there unless I absolutely have to.

What year is your expedition, fisherman222? Going to call Compeau's and see what they will do for me with info. It's not like I can just run down to the dealer. Closest dealer is Bethel, about 100 miles away.

2014 Widetrack did that. There is a small fitting on the back of the brake lever that had popped out. I put it back in and pulled some spare wire for that up. It stopped it. Something to try
