Brake pads at their wear limit? Check the pad thickness. Only works on the front brakes as far as I'm aware.

Otherwise the handbrake switch faulty or the fluid level sensor, you should be able to check these by disconnecting them.

Pads are fine! will check the handbrake switch and fluid sensor

The brake fluid level sensors are a relativley common failure, you have to change the whole reservoir as the sensor is not a seperate part.
