Codes?

Have you changed your brake fluid lately. Brake fluid will go bad just like motor oil. Need to change it about every 30-50k miles

Sounds like you need to change it. I went to NTB and had them test my brake fluid. He did it for free, but I doubt they'll charge you. Or, just do a visual look. It shouldn't be murky at all. Clear amber color. Also, have the floater checked, I had my brake system flushed, and my floater got stuck tripped the BRAKE light. Maybe it just got stuck?
