Everytime i floor my car and hit second gear, the little red brake light comes on in my guages, What doest it mean? My car is an 03 with 45K miles on it, original brakes and clutch?

Thanks
Chad

 

Fluid is “swishing” in the reservoir**. The level dips below the full sensor momentarily.

 

so does that mean i have low fluid? It only just started happening a week ago. The light stays on for a good 5 minutes or so, or when i stop then start going again?

 

when was the last time you had your brake pads changed? mine was doing the exact same thing and it was my pads. like davidv said its the fluid moving and dipping below the sensor. most people will tell you to add some brake fluid. do this only if your pads are good. otherwise top it off. it will go away

 

Thanks ill top it off, brakes still feel like new, but i think ill still change them at 50k, been at the race track a couple of times with the stock brakes...
