#21364, "BRAKES SENSOR?????"


          

DO our cars have some kind of sensor that lets you know when your brakes are worn off?? I have an RS and for the past couple of days inthe morning my brake light stays on for a moment and the turns off . Is this normal ?? because I ve changed my brakes before , but I never saw that light before.

I would start by checking your brake fluid level.
Good luck!

yeah that light means you are probably low on fluid. check the reservoir.

Yup - probably your fluid. When you remove the cap, make sure you push that rubber thing back up into it. That will let you add fluid without having it pushed out when you screw the cap back on. Also, there is a sensor in the actual reservoir that's pretty sensitive when our fluid gets low.
