Stop Warning Light

Hello, I am hoping to get some help with my warning lights display. I already know that cold solder joints are almost a given in the FC's and that COULD be the problem right there. However all of my error lights actually work even though they don't all turn on briefly when the car is started. Just recently I noticed that with moderate brake pressure that the "STOP" light above the E-brake light will illuminate.

After some reading I found out that the light is supposed to warn you of a blown tail light, however I have checked several times and all are working (both on low and high).

NOTE* I said moderate braking pressure because if I am lightly taping the brakes it won't come on, only when I press medium to hard on the brakes will it light up, then goes away.

Thanks for all the help.

I'll go buy a couple bulbs and start replacing them and see which one makes the error light go away. BTW is the Center light supposed to be on with just the running lights? Cause that one doesn't seem to have a low setting and could be the burnt out bulb like you said.

Never mind. You said STOP, not Brake.
