The front calipers are held on by only two bolts.. slide right off..

The rear calipers are held by four bolts.. two of them on the brace. You need to pull all 4 of them off.

let me know if you need more help..

9 times out of 10 you need to top off your brake fluid to make that light go away. Try that first and let us know what happens.

actually the rear brake lights were on not the e brake one. we were working on it but it wouldnt go out. so pops pulled the fuse out so the battery didnt die.

So your brake lights stay on constantly after you get out of the car and walk away? If so, it's probably your brake pedal switch, there's a small rubber stopper that comes into contact with the brake pedal switch and it keeps your lights off until the pedal is depressed. Look down on the floor and see if you can find some small broken up pieces of plastic or rubber. The stopper is located at the top of the brake pedal. To replace it just get another stopper and pinch the sides with a pair of needle nose pliers and it slides right into place.
