Marklouis Posted August 26, 2009 Share Posted August 26, 2009 Dashboard brake light comes on at weird times. A. when braking kind of hard. B. when accelerating (sometimes)??Any ideas? definately low on Brake Fluid - if your fluid looks very dark brown or almost black in the master cylinder reservoir - you can use a turkey baster to pull some of the old out before putting in new. just be sure to twist the screen filter out first. just an option. fill your reservoir almost to the max line. if it is low again in a couple weeks or months, you have a leak somewhere for sure. good luck!
