A "stop" light comes on my warning panel
Everytime I brake a 'stop' light comes on my warning panel. Should I check the brake fluid tomarrow morning? Any other ideas what it could be?

Thanks!
Jager!

You may have blown a brake light.

Check the oil?!

The STOP warning light indicates one of the brake light bulbs is blown.

The BRAKE warning light indicates the handbrake is on or the brake fluid is low.

yep.

it's a brake light out.

just replace the bulb, all will be well

have an assistant push on the brake pedal soy ou can see which it is, you can access them all easily through the spare tire compartment.

sweet, Mine always came on cause I had one brake light blown so I just thought it came on so you knew you were braking :/. I replaced the bulb and it stopped coming on so I thought it was broken but it's not
