Pull the release lever and pull up on the park park by hand, or you could try setting the park brake then pull the release lever rapidly. If i pull the release lever on mine too slowly the light will stay on so maybe yours is the same way.

I have to reset the brake and release it again, sometimes 2 or 3 times, to get it to release.

I do not believe that it is the switch. Because when it is fully released the light does go off. When the light is on I can feel the E brake dragging. I believe it is the mechanism binding or dragging somehow.

Found the culprit, The rubber bumper on the top of the foot lever that hits the switch is damaged, did a temp fix, but that isn't likely to last much longer than a few weeks.
I have the opposite problem.......my light won't come on unless I fiddle around with the sensor at the top of the release. So every time I want to use my AIC or let the truck idle up in the cold I have to poke around until it comes on.
