whenever i brake my brake light seems to come on???, it's the 1 next to the hand brake light

my brake lights work and i can't figure it out. my brakes may need changing, i know that i have a brake line leak somewhere, it's eats brake fluid sad.gif

I've heard that the brake pedal contacts under the dash can become cruddy so when you push the pedal, it brakes but the contacts don't touch and the ECU thinks something is wrong. It could also be the leaky lines but I just thought I'd offer another possibility. wink.gif

Try new brake fluid and the check that the sensor in the tank is stilll working
Push it down and see if it still; working.
