Brake pads are wearing causing piston to come out alittle farther thus using more brake fluid.
Check your master cylinder brake fluid as that light is the low fluid sensor, also check pad thickness front/rear and fill accordingly.

YOU WERE CORRECT,MY PADS WERE LOW IN THE REAR,I NEEDED NEW CALIPERS BECAUSE THE FLUIDS WERE LEAKING WHEN I TRIED TO BRAKE CAUSING THE LIGHT TO COME ON....I NEVER KNEW THAT MENT FLUIDS WERE LOW..........GUESS YOU LEARN SOMETHING NEW EVERYDAY! THANKS! PROBLEM SOLVED $450 BUCKS AND I CAN DRIVE SAFELY AGAIN. ![[burnout]](graemlins/burnout.gif)
