BMW E46 Instruments Handbrake light

[atc11]

I have a strange problem with BMW E46. There are only two lights on the instruments (when on ignition): Brake (!) and airbag. About the airbag ,i can't check it for now,but about the second (brake) control i have checked:
-Brake fluid and it's sensor
-Handbrake sensor
-Wiring from them to instrument cluster

There is no other lights after starting the engine.Does anyone have any idea where is the problem.Maybe because of the airbag ?

Just try a simple experiment:

Noticing the words this may or may not work.

Remove the headlight switch, grab hold of the wiring loom, NOT THE PLUG
close your eyes and yank like ~~~~.

If not check for blown or missing fuses
Have had thses where they chaff the can wires behind the dashpod.

The brake light is RED, i was also thinking about wiring,but i have checked connections between handbrake,brake fluid sensor and instrument cluster,all connections are good

when you start rolling on the road, does the cluster start to beep ?

Also, check if the handbrake switch or its wiring isn't touching the chassis (getting GND)
