i believe my warning light for my brakes is on (circle with dashes wrapped around it- i have no manual to check)
anyway, my brake lights are out...i've replaced bulbs and no luck. about to change the fuse (hopefully, it's that simple of a problem) but if it is not...HELP.

what should i check next?

Hi there,

If it is a brake warning light, check that the brake fluid is not to low, as it may be a fluid indicator warning, also best to have the brakes inspected as it may be a low pad indicator as well.

The brake light switch is in need of replacement and the indicator is telling you that you will need to replace brake pads and possibly rotors soon
