Default E-Break Indicator

Hi guys,

I have a weird problem. My E-Break indicator goes on and off while driving. Usually when I break, the E-break light will come one. And when I accelerate, the E-break light goes off. Is there something I can adjust or check?

Thanks in advance

Check your brake fluid level, it's probably just low enough that it is tripping the brake warning light (which comes on both when the e-brake is on or when the fluid is low) when the fluid sloshes around.

And that generally means it is time to replace brake pads.
