check the braker booster aslso if you have a vacuum problem or a leak in the booster itself you might have the same problem try bleeding the brakes also if there are no leaks and you get air out of a closed system the master is def bad

Anyone have any idea why the security light and and stop light might not be coming on all the sudden?
Edit: I just went out and looked this morning and Im seeing brake fluid on the front left tire, so I think i might have bursted a line. I guess ill go take it off and take a look.

Okay, I just took off the left front, and there is deffintaly brake fluid on the inside of my rim, but everything is dry and the line doesnt look like it burst and I cant see any leaks, any ideas?
And for the security light, its coming on now, its just not making a beep when it comes on like it usally does.

If there is brake fluid on your rim you need to replace the brake line. It's easy to do.Take the line off above the brake and inspect it. Run a little compressed air through it. You will find the leak!
Good news is it isn't your master.
MY factory security light works when it wants to. Might be a short somewhere! Try tapping the sec light very lightly and it may work properly.

have someone press the brake pedal while you look with a set of safetey glasses, maybe a face shield. Add some more fluid if there is no more left, so u cna see the leak

freemanrx7, Ill give that a shot.
initial D is REAL!, I drove it to our shop and as soon as i got it inside i took the wheel off and the caliper,rotor, brake line, ect wasent wet with any brake fluid, it just had the fluid from last night i saw. It still have the same brake problem, i push it and it is firm then it just pushes all the way down to the ground(It will stop the car still though)
stevie1020, I will look at the caliper when i look at the brake line tommrow.
