could this be a problem?

Last night while driving, my brake light came on in the guage cluster. Also, the one on the far left. It has a pic of a car with lines behind it. I thought that one was for traction control, which is something I don't have. Could those lights come on for a warning or maybe it's just a short?

thanks...

That light is always on and off for me. I just ignore it since my brakelights are all in working order.

Next time the car starts, it should be gone.

Just add some DOT3 brake fluid and see if it makes any difference! And bleed your brakes!

cool thanks, any ideas about that other light?

The pic of the car is prolly an ECU error. Maybe its "detecting" the sensor? I had the same problem with my brake light, and it was just because I needed more fluid

the light w\ the car and the lines is a tail light going out... on mine it was my spoiler LED lighting, which turned back on in 3 days, and has been on ever sence.. so... check your tail lights...

My taillight light came on while I was making a long trip. I stopped to check it out but there was nothing wrong. After I turned off the car and turned it back on it wasn't on anymore and it hasn't been on since which was probably 4 months ago.

Most likely the other is a coolant light. Check your brake fluid (which I'm 99% sure is the issue - it COULD be a mis-adjusted parking brake too, but I doubt it). Then make sure your coolant is topped off.

This is stuff you should be checking weekly anyway.
