Ive had my 98 GLE now for a year and havent had any problems swith it, until tonight. In a matter of 12 hour the temp here in CT went from 54 degrees sunny to 30 and snow.

I get in my car to drive off tonight from work and when I get to the main road my brake light comes on. The first thing i did was jam on the brakes to make sure I still had them then again to see if the ABS was affected and they work fine. When i got to a stop light I turned the car off then on again and the light remained.

Does anyone know why its on?

My pads arent that low I checked them like 2 months ago.

I had the alternator replaced through the recall this summer.

i had a similar problem. My brake light came on along with the battery light. This occured sporatically along with the radio sound cutting it out. It Ended being my alternator.

The alternator would throw the brake and battery light, add brake fluid and check your pads, they may be low.
