Havard Posted January 17, 2008 Share Posted January 17, 2008 Have you changed your brake fluid recently? They will need bleeding properly or you may have a leak. Mine did this after the caliper was changed..... H. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew_sup Posted January 17, 2008 Author Share Posted January 17, 2008 thanks. the back brake pads need changing and the battery ws really low when I took it for a test drive think it could be either one of them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake Posted January 17, 2008 Share Posted January 17, 2008 It'll be the brake fluid, common problem with Supras Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Terminator Posted January 18, 2008 Share Posted January 18, 2008 It'll be the brake fluid, common problem with Supras The level of fluid in the master cylinder, needs only to be slightly below full for the dash light to illuminate under braking. I think the problem can be exacerbated if you have big brakes and the JDM master cylinder as the fluid level will drop more rapidly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
