My hand break light and ABS light come dimly on of a night. I assumed it was a reflection as it only comes on of a night time and not a day and when I put a torch on them it disappears. Though when I turn my car off, they stay on. For a few seconds before turning off with the rest of the car.
I am confused because I can see them on but not as strong as my other lights.

The lights are on indicating a fault has been detected by the ABS system. Have a scan done to check for trouble codes. Check the brake fluid level.

Possibly it could be due to voltage differences. Have the scan done and if no codes found, have the charging system tested.
