check your brake fluid, it may be a little low and when you accelerate it moves around turns on the light for a few seconds.

Yeah definitely check your brake fluid, my car was doing the same. Turns out it was the brake fluid

This has been discussed like one other time. Finding that thread would just be an inconvenience.

You can't search thread everything and get a definite answer. Anyone who has been here long enough knows that the search function is extremely cluttered with threads. Most worthless.

My girls car did the same thing, brake fluid. Now you should never need to top off your brake fluid (though it should be changed) as generally when its low enough to trip your light, so are your pads.

Really guys?
#1 Brake Light
#2 Problems: Ebrake light and rattle in drivers door
#3 dash brake light
#4 break light

This is from the first page when you search bar it... Seems like a pretty definite answer to me

Busted! Hard to argue against this!

Place black duck tape over the area were the light turns on, turn ur car on and drive, u should no longer see the light turn on if u do re apply some more tape till it's no longer visible.

This thread now has a solution the other don't, making it unique so forget the hard work of search and create a "new" post on old issue to get new solutions
