Default Brake indicator on dashboard stays on

Hello everyone!

I am having issue with the "BRAKE" indicator on the dashboard staying on. I was driving one day then it started flashing then it went solid. Any suggestions?

Just checked the fluid & it's on the "MAX" line. Sensor connections seem to fine.

The BRAKE indicator lamp can be caused by either the brake fluid level switch or the parking brake switch.

Under the hood, disconnect Black Connector C310. If the BRAKE lamp goes out, the issue is related to the brake fluid level switch; the switch may be stuck closed when it should be open (if the fluid level is okay).
