Low fluid advice is right from the horse's mouth

If it comes on at any other time, it indicates a problem with the car’s brake system. In most cases, the problem is a low fluid level in the brake fluid reservoir. Press lightly on the brake pedal to see if it feels normal. If it does, check the brake fluid level the next time you stop at a service station (see page ). If the fluid level is low, take the car to your dealer and have the brake system inspected for leaks or worn brake pads.

If it's full, then it's a problem with the switch itself. Test it.
Full = no continuity.
Empty = continuity.
