Dashboard brake light

So my brake light will come on the dash a few times while driving. It'll stay on for a little, then go out. The ebrake is not engaged and is in the off position. I do have a "squeal" on my front driver side. I took everything apart to inspect because I though the caliper might be getting stuck. But it wasn't. I re greased the plungers and put it all back together. Rotors seem fine and I have plenty of pad left. So I'm wondering if there is possibly another issue i am having but do not know about.

 

Has this happened to anyone else? Btw. 1993 pathy 4x4 5speed.

How full is the master cylinder?

If it's pretty low it might flicker around corners because the fluid sloshed away from the float for the level sensor.

 

The clutch interlock switch also turns the brake light on. Maybe that's broke and making contact?

You sir are the man. On the way home from work I took a couple turns faster than I normally would and sure enough the brake light came on. Topped off the fluid and hasn't done it since.

 

Thanks again
