Okay, so I'm on my way back from college and my brake indicator light comes on. I checked the fluid and its at nearly a perfect level, the pedal doesn't feel any less firm to my knowledge and I'm not hearing any random noises. I'm generally very kind to my brakes and barely use them at all to begin with. I'm just wondering if anybody out there has had a similar experience and can let me know what they did about it or if its that serious, cuz obviously being in college I don't have immediate access to a stealership

 

check you pad level both sides of caliper and rears too ,you didnt forget to put your e brake down did you ?

 

If it is your SRS light, then you need to go to the dealer and get an update to your ECU. When I was at the dealer last week they told me about this update.

Good Luck

 

SRS (safety restraint system ) your air bags

 

nah its not the SRS and I didn't leave the e-brake up...but it is the same light....i doubt its my pads but i'll check on that....i was thinking about reseting the ECU and seeing if the problem persists.....any opinions on this option?

 

yea you could try that dont see why it wouldhurt it might not come back on right away you may need to drive around for a few miles to make sure

how old is the car ? (year)

I know you said you didn't leave the e-brake up, but make sure the handle is all the way down. Once I accidentally brushed my leg against the handle making it go up just a bit, not enough to engage the e-brake, but enough for the brake light to come on.
