RE: head lamp lights on
Had the exact problem last week on my 99 accord lx.
It was about 2 oz. low in the brake fluid. Topped it off and all is well. Light off.
Used genuine Honda brake fluid too.

RE: head lamp lights on
Is this an inquiry about the brake light fault detection circuit, or red low brake fluid lamp? I think the former from his description.
If that isthe case, I've seen intermittent brake light bulbs cause this problem. Apparently filament is cracked and opens momentarily due to vibration, setting of the brake lamp out warning. New bulbs are necessary to fix. No way to inspect and find the faulty bulb.
good luck

RE: head lamp lights on
The warning lamp for the fluid & handbrake are the same, which is the one that lights up when you pull the handbrake handle.
The one for burned-out brake lamps says BRAKE LAMP. It works by comparing wattage side-to-side. Some people have replaced all bulbs back there just so they match each other. Also, dont forget to clean out corrosion/dirt from the bulb sockets.
