Brakes problem
1997 Dodge Intrepid 6 cyl Automatic

when the car is running the "brake" and the ABS light in the message center on the dash flashes, the emergency brake is NOT engaged and the brakes seem to work fine when driving.

Any ideas where to start?

Thanks for any and all help

You need to start by having the computer scanned to identify why the lights are flashing. You will get a trouble code which will identify why it is on.

Have that done and let me know what you find.
