Question "Brake" light in dash issue.

Recently, my "Brake" light in the gauge cluster keeps coming on. It will come on, stay on for a while, then as I hit a bump or the car's weight shifts, the light will go off for a while.

Where exactly is the sensor that activates this "brake" light located? I am guessing close to the e-brake lever, but I can't find it.

Does anyone else know of a similar problem with other EVOs?

It means you are low on brake fluid.

What kind of brake fluid is recommended?

If it is the ebrake handle switch, where is the wire or switch located?
