Check the pads for wear, and check the wires to make sure the casing has not been eroded away. The brake rotor completes the circuit in normal cases or front pad wear.

Agreed, also check fluid level.

fluid level

second on the fluid level

The resevoir is a dual chamber (front / rear) - nice safety design.

I had a real slow leak in my rear caliper and it drained the back chamber and made the light flash under brake and acceleration (as the fluid sloshed).
