Hey can anyone help me?

The "Brake" light comes on in the gauge cluster, it seems to come on rather randomly. . my brake fluid seems fine (it's a little above the min.) it comes on and off it seems like it happens with i brake hard right after boost hard.... or comes on when i'm connering... and then recently it comes on randomly when i'm jsut driving

Anyone know wassup?

 

Usually its either brake fluid or your pads might be worn down, perhaps ABS?

 

abs??? isnt there an ABS light???

what about ABS would cause it to come on??h

 

Top off the fluid, mine did it for a while, randomly out of the blue. Its a cheap way to start and it's not a bad thing to be full. Then if it still is on you can move to checking the pads.

 

It's most likely the fluid level in the reservoir. It's too low. Same thing used to happen on my Eclipse.

 

Just top off your fluid man. I would assume the fluid is rushing front/back when you brake/boost.. this may cause the sensor to see a below min level?

I would definately try this first...

 

what kind of fluid would i use to top it off?? and cerent type ... or just any dot 5

 

Its not fine.

 

soo what kind of fluid... like does brand matter?? or just any dot 5??

 

bump

 

check you manual. It should be any current dot5.

 

it says dot5 .. but like is there any brand that's suppose to be better?

 

Unless your runnin Infineon weekly, I dont think so.

 

Mine did the same thing, turned out to be my brake pads.

 

Usually worn pads causes the light the come on.

Most modern passenger cars, the brake fluid reservoir is designed with a specific volume and is equipped with an internal float. The volume corresponds to the amount of fluid that will be displaced when the pads have worn to the point of replacement plus a generous reserve. When the replacement point is reached, the descending float completes an electrical circuit and a light appears on the dash warning the driver that the pads should be replaced.
If the brake fluid is topped up the first warning of warn out pads will be the screech of steel backing plate against iron disc. This will be both annoying and expensive.
