Had the same problem. At first I thought it was the bomb as well. Turned out to
be low on Pentosin. Topped it up and the brake light warning went away. I think
I've got a slow leak in the ps pump, but until it starts to get bad, I don't
think I'll bother replacing all the o-rings. I still have a brake light warning
under sudden abrubt braking but the flickering that was associated with
accerlation/turns and sloshing in the reservoir has gone away.
