Parking brake light on + no drive

2004 Jungheinrich EFG 425k
Everything works (hydraulic and steering) but not driving.
Parking brake light on instrument panel is always on even when pressing switch on dashboard. Is this parking brake lamp related to forklift not driving?.. Also service light is on...

Thanks for your reply.

The forklift has electric brakes.
Can you tell me where this micro switch is placed?
