Is it brake light or brake fluid warning?

If its the light - note there are two bulbs on each side on the saloon The warning system has been known to be quite sensitive to having the right impedence bulbs fitted.  If all else fails, try some new bulbs from Vx.

only 1 per side for brakes ;)

brake warnings (other than check brakelight (on 98 or later)) are
brake light (faulty bulb/connection)
brake pads (worn through wear sensor, needs new front pads and sensors)
