Hi Robert, I'd like to help you; what year make and model of the car are you having problems with? Perhaps you can give me more succinct details- I'm unsure what you mean by "the parking brake light went out".
Or do you mean, the light came ON!?
It's normal for the parking brake light to illuminate when you set the parking brake; and for it to turn off when the parking brake is released.
However, if the parking brake light stays illuminated after releasing the brake, the parking brake cable may need to be readjusted at the linkage, located underneath the car...or a simple adjustment to the parking brake pedal or hand level needs adjustment.
I would bring the car back to the mechanic who made the repair since it should be covered/warrantied

How To Install Repair Replace Parking Brake Release CableHandle ... or replace a broken or worn out parking brake release cable handle.
You need to lower the underdash shroud. Couple 7mm nuts hold it on. Look to the left at the parking brake pedal. Follow along a black sort of tube to the end. That end will have a cable comming out of it. Follow the cable. The cable is attached to the parking brake release lever. Pull the cable or the release handle and the parking brake should release.
Some Pontiac models have a release cable pull located on the drivers side lower dash panel...other models do not have a seperate release pull...the white lettered instructions could be worn off...but you will need to depress the parking pad pedal in order to release...if none of this works, your parking brake cable is stuck, and needs to be lubricated...not a costly thing...have you had the rear brakes serviced? Hope this helps...:)
This is a common fault often caused by low battery voltage, before you start taking expensive actions with the park brake modules etc get your battery checked for 100% efficiency.
Hope this helps, good luck.
There should be a manual release. Reach up along the parking brake pedal. Ford has a manual lever that you pull toward yourself to release the parking brake. Hope this helps our with your problem. Best of luck. Greg
