dash brake light lights when brakes are pressed
i have a 2002 accord v6 coupe 124k miles
the brakes do not make any noise but just this morning when i depress the brakes the brake light on the dash lit up for a few seconds?? anyone had this problem? do you think there is a problem with my car/brakes?? any help is appreciated. I will have to take off work to take my car to the shop if needed, plus the expense of a repair.

RE: dash brake light lights when brakes are pressed
The warning lamp for the handbrake will also light up for low brake fluid. There's a float switch in the reservoir.
But there's a different warning lamp for 'brake lights'. That one's supposed to go off when a brakelight bulb is burned out. Sometimes it's too sensitive & it light up when one socket is corroded or dirty, even though the bulb still works.
SO.... which warning lamp is it?
