Default Dash brake light

After bleeding my brakes the brake light is on my dash. I have bled the brakes in the same manor 3-4 times and this is the first time the light has remained lit after start up. Any input appreciated.

When you pull the DTC code, is it point you to the fluid level sensor in the tank as the problem, or the EBCM instead.

Hence with dash light light up, any scanner should be able to pull the code number to post it here.

Thanks. I haven't checked for a code with my scanner as all the searches I've found said you had to have a Tech 2?

Tech II is need to get down to the body level on some things/pull some history codes, but if your are getting a dash light, then basic candi scanner will pull that code.

Dano,
No codes pulled with scanner. I'm going to investigate the hand brake switch next?
