I was on my way back home when the tail light senor and battery and brake turned on, those sensor light turn on and off and then stayed on. I checked my lights and they all work so what could it be? Battery is good brakes are good.

All of these things have computers involved that are sensitive to low system voltage. That will make them do weird things. That refers to a generator problem which is why the "battery" light would turn on.

Have the charging system tested. That's what the "battery" light is telling you. Typically this is caused by a defective generator that is not keeping the battery charged.
