Hi,

Thanks for the tip. Someone from another Boxster list pointed out what is most likely the problem. There is a microswitch in the parking brake mechanism that "tells" the car the brake is engaged. The "PARK" light in the dash is lit also. When I checked, my "PARK" light isn't on, so I assume the microswitch is not functioning. I hope this is a fairly easy/inexpensive repair.
