I was looking at the 1996 Ford Crown Victoria Owner Guide and that's NORMAL The parking brake will release automatically when any forward gear is selected The parking brake will also not engage with the vehicle in any forward gear
Release parking brake. Place transmission in Reverse. Apply brakes very firmly at about 5 mph. Repeat 10 times. That will automatically adjust the parking brake shoes.
take off rear brake calpers and theres a set of brake shoes inside adj and reinstall
Switch should be located at the upper end of parking brake pedal under dash area Light is common with low brake fluid light
I am presuming that you mean the parking Brake light It may be a loose wire or your parking brake (pedal and arm)needs to be tightened. You may also have to tighten the switch
You have to remove the brake caliper first. Then you might have to slack the parking brake. The parking brake on read disc in inside the back of the rotor. If you cannot slack the parking brake, the you will have to hit the rotor ( with a small 5 lb hammer ) to loosen it. Might take a little time if it is stuck on.
The first box is in the car up around the parking brake pedal. The 2nd is under the hood.
If you are talking about the steel brake lines, most likely the rear lines, then replace both from front to back.

It's on the arm of the brake pedal.
From inside the trunk, remove the wing nuts and just pull the whole assembly to the out side. Bulbs are in there.
Check the bulbs, the fuse then the brake light switch.
