My red brake warning light comes on periodically. OK for a few days then reappears. Resetting clears the light until the next time!
Brake pads are fine (plenty of lining) and have not been disturbed recently. Fluid reservoir is full (no leaks) and brakes perform well. Have checked wiring as best I can, no obvious breaks. Fluid sensor appears to work as intended.
Clearly have an intermittent fault some where, my guess is either in the sensors (pads/reservoir) or wiring that I can't see.
Grateful for any thoughts/experience of this.
Cheers,
Ian

Check the wear sensors that clip into the pads are in place and not worn so they are earthing and bringing the light on.check the plug end as well for shorting
