brokenCRX

Recently my brake light on the instrument cluster remains on after I release the parking brake. It first started doing this only when I cranked the car early in the morning and it was cold out. After driving for a while(30 minutes or so), the light went out. Now the light stays on everytime I crank the car, not just on cold mornings. If the light goes out and I brake semi-hard, it will come back on! My brake fluid is not low. Anybody else ever had this happen? Any input?

Front pads: Axxis Ultiminates
Rear pads: stock
Fluid: ATS Super Blue

The front pads were installed 3 months ago(~4000 miles) and the rear pads still had plenty of pad left at that time.
Thanks for any help!

Try changing the master cylinder cap. Worked for me.

TypeR 01 886

Haha... I love seeing this question, its the most common bug in Integras. Its absolutely harmless.

I have had the same problem in my GS-R and now my Type-R. I learned about it when I brought my GS-R to the dealer like 3 times for it. They do the same things everytime. Replace master cylendar cap and refill fluid. It only fixes the problem for like a week or two then it does it again.

I think its just something that is wrong with the intergra and its harmless.

Just my .02c

I will replace the cap and see if that makes a difference.
Thanks!

my car is doing this exact thing right now... i'll be interested to see if that works (and only for a few weeks...)

The cap on my Type R has the level sensor wires attached to it. I wonder if they have cracked or gotten caught in the threads. I bet its a continuity problem with the sensor cables.

BTW - I know you don't want to hear this because you already said the level is good, but I would put the fluid level at very near max and see if that solves the problem. My light comes on when the fluid level is slightly above the min mark.
