...possibly under- filled due to bleeding brakes. |

If the bottle on the master cylinder has enough oil then i guess it might be a nonworking buoy (the buoy is to indecate the oil low level). I called it a buoy because I don't know it's name : )).. Good Luck.

there is usually a pressure sensor on the front of the master cylinder that has a single wire going to it, if it detects un equal pressure it will trigger, turning on the light, you must press the rubber part in to reset it after repairs, this should turn the light off if youy model has this feature.
