Currently have the same issue with both lights coming on. They came on when
I started my car to drive home on Fri. Got home turned the car off and
waited 10 secs, restarted the car and they were off. Happened before, about
a week ago. Car is currently in the shop and that is one of the things I
told them to take a look. at.Will keep ya updated.
Just try the bomb test yourself, quote taken from here:
http://www.sjmautotechnik.com/trouble_shooting/brake.html
"One test for the accumulator, is to run the engine for a few minutes, turn
off the engine, and then pump the brake pedal until the pedal feels hard,
( no more power assist). Normally with a good, working accumulator, this
test takes 25-35 pumps on the pedal before the pedal gets hard. If the pedal
gets hard with only a few pumps on the pedal, the brake accumulator is
defective and should be replaced."
