under acceleration, my brake light comes on. But only under a WOT pull, in first gear, and when she is cold, allthough, today she did it when she was warm too, and IIRC she did it before under the same temp.
Do yall think that it could be that something is wrong with my combination valve? (proportioning valve, whatever)
i checked my fluid, and it does seem slightly low. Could the pull in first gear, just be too much, were the fluid goes back and the sender drops down, and puts the light on?
thats my guess that it could be that. But since i keep on going through rotors and pads up front, (these just started to grind :madflame: :cuss: (dam Midas)) could my proportioning valve be messed up? and that cause a brake light to come on?
I am experincing front end dive, so my guess would be that the PV isnt doing its job.
Any suggestions, or similar problems?

I'd look at the Brake On/Off (BOO) switch. I believe it is located under the brake pedal. It senses when you are pressing the brake.

OOPS. I didn't fully read your post. I would assume that the fluid level isn't high enough. Also, inspect the resivior cap to see that the float is in good condition, both mechanically and electronically.
