Default brake warning light

hello. just flushed and bled the brake fluid w/some new synthetic fluid and now my brake light is on. when i disconnect the sensor ,the light goes out. obviously the fluid level is ok , so is this sensor capable of detecting air bubbles or will it turn itself off after a few miles? thanks in advance.

I've never heard of synthetic brake fluid but I've never looked. Maybe it's too light to clear the sensor. But be sure to fill the reservoir to the full level just to be sure. Mine gets a light just 1/4 inch below the full line. Bray [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/40BEER.gif[/img]

Yeah Bray is right, if yours isn't filled to the full line then the light will come on, you are just low on fluid, even if you are between the lines, fill it to full and that should shut it off,

if not check fuses

if not check dealership...lol
