I just had a complete rear brake job done(replaced wheel cylinders) and now the "LOW BRAKE FLUID" warning light is on continuously. Also the emergency brake light is on and won't go off. I checked the fluid level in the reservoir and topped it of...it wasn't low at all. How do I get the lights to go off?

Do you have anti-lock brakes? If not, follow the two steel lines from the master cylinder down to the combination valve. Unplug the single wire from it, then see if the warning light goes off. Also be sure the parking brake is fully released.
