It could be the parking brake lamp switch. The switch is located at the base of the parking brake assembly (down in between the seat and the center tunnel.) You would need to remove the entire parking brake assembly to gain access to the switch. Start by removing the handle and the boot and try to see if the switch connection has become damaged, loosened or if a wire was pinched.
