Brake light is on
While driving home on tuesday my brake light came on. i tested the switch by trying to lower the top with the E-brake on and it worked fine. With the E-brake off the top doesnt move. i guess this means the switch is ok.
So who wants to take a guess at this one ?
One last note, I checked brake fluid and everything is ok.
I guess this means a trip to the... the .... the ..... dealer.(it hard to say the D word)

The owner's manual says that if the brake light comes on when the emergency brake is not on, it indicates a problem with the brake system. I would not mess around with this. As others have suggested, it is easy enough to determine whether it is just a burned out brake light. If that isn't it, take it to the dealer immediately. You could take it to a reputable mechanic of your choice, but then you better get out your checkbook.
