(Home) Brake warning light

A very merry christmas to one and all.

Just looking for some re-assurance really. The Brake warning light has started to come on very briefly and then go out again, usually when turning and accellerating. Brakes however are fine and all appears OK. Seem to remember this having been reported before but cannot find original post in the Archives. Has anyone ever had this problem and if so what was the remedy?

Thanks in advance for any advice.

Cheers
Tony

Check your brake fluid level. Off side end of the dashboard,visible when door is open. Warning light is activated by a float. Max and min levels can be seen as the reservoir is transparent.

It could also be the brake pressure, if the levels are okay try checking the tension on the alternator as a slack belt could give changes in pressure causing the light to come on.
