check your brake fluid!! if not maybe the switch in the console is bad.

happened to me before. Turned out my brake fluid was low. went away after i added more fluid. Funny thing is that the fluid was actually in between the MIN and MAX lines like right in the middle. I didn't even think it was needing more. I just poured some in anyway up to the MAX level line and it went away.

Careful just adding fluid. The level drops as your pads wear away. If you add more fluid you wont know when your pads need changing until you hear them grinding on your rotors with that little squealing thing they put on brake pads now.

yeah SOHC is right.....good thing i just changed my pads before i had "low" brake fluid. So i dont think the pads wearing is the prob. but i did put that into consideration. Check ur pads before adding fluid
