Wink 1997 Toyota Camry Dasboard Brake indicator

I have a 1997 toyota camry (2.2 L - 4 cylinder). When driving at around 40mph or greater then step on the brakes the dashboard brake light comes on. It does not happen all the time, but often enough to be noticed. This light should come on only when I have the hand brake pulled.

Any suggestions on what is causing the problem.

Add a little brake fluid. The e-brake light is also for the Brake Fluid low sensor. 9 times out of 10 that will solve the issue.
