Brake light turned on,

I did my rear brakes a couple weeks ago, reset the light and put in a new sensor in. For some reason the yellow brake light turned on today. Any idea as to why. As you can see it just shows lines and says I need to service them. What could this mean?

Have you tried another reset? Try that.

How about the brake sensor? If you did maybe its not fully connected?

If the brake sensor becomes damaged, gets ripped out or wires get torn it’ll come back on, that’s the most common issue since it took so long to come back on and isn’t resetting ! Should be easy work since you have another ! Good luck !
