Default brake light warning
Does anyone one know if there is a way to disable or fix the "brake light" warning on the autocheck screen on a 200 20vt?It only comes on intermittently, but is beginning to annoy me.

Default
check the p/s and brake fluid level, if not - most likely bad "bomb" - only fix is to replace

Default That's not the light I'm talking about.
Not the light under the computer display that says "brake", the one in the autocheck system that says "brake light"

Default is it the yellow brake symbol? thats low pad warming
check your front pads and related sensor wires, if they are good you can loop the wires to bypass the alarm.

Default No, it's not that circular symbol either
The words "BRAKE LIGHT" actually appear on the display. What can be done to fix this, my brake lights work.

Try to pull out the bulb holders in the taillights and spray them with electrical contacts cleaner
