Hi all, my brake light comes on for a few mins. periodically (2000
Accord Ex V6). The fluid isn't low. Anyone know what else in the brake
system can be indicated by the light, apart from the fluid?

Thanks,
Rog

if you've had the master cylinder replaced, the cheapo after-market
cylinders sometimes have a faulty sensor in the fluid reservoir. check
it and if that's the case, just disconnect it and check your fluid level
each time you check your oil.

It also comes on for the parking brake. Check the switch on the parking
brake lever for looseness. also check that the lever returns completely
when you take off the parking brake.
