On my Subaru, if the brake fluid was low, this would happen. Check your brake fluid and make sure the caps are installed properly. What hose is messed up? Brakes are not something to have hoses messed up.

My guess: You're low on brake fluid. This is one reason why the brake light goes on. RTFM.

If you replaced a hose then you lost brake fluid.
Fill it back up.
