Hi all,

My "BRAKE" dash warning light keeps popping on. The brakes work perfectly, no pull, fade etc. The pads and rotors are nearly new, the fluid is just below full and there are no leaks. The system passes all test for pedal height, booster function etc.

It seems to come on most frequently when accelerating from a stop, as when stopped at a light. It stays on for ten seconds or so then goes off. It's coming on every two or three days (daily driver) maybe once or twice in the day it occurs.

Any ideas?

Thanks!
