Default 2016 Accord Brake Warning light on

The brake warning light came on. How do I troubleshoot this? E-brake isn't on, fluid is okay and brakes aren't sponge.

Is this the same light that turns on when the e-brake is engaged, or a different brake light?

I don't know the 2016 cluster setup, but on older accords there were two lights. The e-brake light and brake lamp light. The brake lamp light indicated you had a brake bulb out.

I don't yet have a manual for this car so I will check the brake lights,. The wife gave me the wrong information. It isn't the e-brake light. It is an orange warning light, looks like a horseshoe with a ' ! 'in the middle. Maybe someone else is familiar with this particular cluster and pipe in. Thanks for your response.

Low tire pressure light. Check your tire pressure (including the spare). Add air to the tires. The recommended psi should be on a sticker in the driver's door frame.

EDIT: You can also find the 2016 owner's manual online from honda. Just google 2016 accord owner's manual to get a pdf for your car.
