My Brake warning light does not come on when I turn the key, When I take the cap off the master cylinder it works so if it needs fluid it'll tell me.
The problem is I need it to come on when I have the red's on to pass a blue slip.
Has anybody had the same problem or know how to fix it?
Thanks guys.

Does it work with the handbrake???

Read your post, and thought.... hmmm I don't remember putting the cap back on the master cylinder after I finished bleeding the brakes this arvo, went out for a look, and fair enough it was gone... found it in the middle of the road, it had only been run over a few times, all good...lol

I'd be tempted to just bridge it to the oil pressure light or something in that case, no idea how to fix it properly sorry.

I just checked mine. It comes on when I turn ignition on. Then off when I start it. Does your light work when it has low fluid?

Sweet i'll do that, I didn't even think of that. Yeah it works when I take the cap off and move the float so if the fluid gets low it'll come on.
Thanks for your help guys.
