Recently I accidently left my ignition key in the on position overnight. The next morning I discovered that my emergency brake light comes on intermittently while driving the car. If I brake hard or turn a corner the emergency brake light comes on again. After a few seconds the light goes off. This will happen several times a trip, no matter how long or short the trip is.
Is there a switch or somthing that burned out and needs replacing?

Hi shastasteve,

You need to check the fluid level in the brake master cylinder reservoir.
