Hi.

Good day.

I bought a secondhand vehicle listed above and it was working great not until I noticed that the brake warning sign is showing every time, I'm reaching 100kmph.

And it won't disappear unless I turn off the engine.

The brake fluid is full as well.

Does it have a connection on the speed warning limit here in UAE which will start to beep when I reach 120kph.

Thank you for your answers.

This light will come on if the parking brake is pulled lightly or the brake fluid sensor inside the brake master is bad, to check for sure you can ground out the level sensor which is the ORG wire. If this doesn't work, it could be the instrument cluster itself is going bad. Also, I would check the parking brake handle position. I would do a CAN scan to see if nay codes are stored. You can get a CAN scanner (Controller Area Network) which will work on most cars from Amazon.

Here is a video to show you how:
