Default was it the pad indicator light or other brake light

the pad indicator light should be yellow circular. if the other light, among other things, could be an ABS malfunction.

Same thing happened to me. Turned out the brake fluid was low and on quick turns, the lack of fluid would trip off the sensor and the brake light would flash on and off intermittently w/ a sound.

Default sounds like you're having this problem...

not uncommon, but nothing to worry about
