Check your brake fluid level. If its good don't worry about the light. I was told by acura that its do to a faulty sensor in the reservoir (however you spell it). Mine ussually goes off when I move the sensor around. If the light really bothers you check into a new sensor.

Then if neither work, replace your reservoir cap.

I've got an idea. Use the search feature. We just went over this 2 days ago...and the exact same question probably 2 weeks before that...

also this is important as well..


CHECK the PADS.

When the pads wear (thin) it takes more fluid out of the reservior and into the caliper itself, causing low fluid conditions.

If you just filled up the reservior, when you went to put in new pads the res will overflow.

So, remember to look at the pads first, then check the fluid level, then if not that, make sure the wires are connected to the top of the lid.
