Kharmon Posted March 5, 2016 Posted March 5, 2016 Hi guys , My 370z is throwing up the brake warning light (same as hand brake light) and the esp light sometimes when i put my foot down abit . They go back off when i restart the car and dont come on unless you give the accelerator a big squeeze. Any ideas ? Ill get it booked in the garage tomorrow . Quote
philw99 Posted March 5, 2016 Posted March 5, 2016 Weird my 350 had the same issue today after a track day. I'm thinking a sensor has gone? 1 Quote
Kharmon Posted March 5, 2016 Author Posted March 5, 2016 Brake fluid level? Ill go check now just had its first service though Quote
Kharmon Posted March 5, 2016 Author Posted March 5, 2016 Brake fluid level? Brake fluid is decent Quote
ZEUS Posted March 5, 2016 Posted March 5, 2016 If it's showing to the full mark then.....I've run out of ideas. Quote
Kharmon Posted March 5, 2016 Author Posted March 5, 2016 If it's showing to the full mark then.....I've run out of ideas. Its about 1cm from the full mark ? Ill give the garage a call in the morning thanks though Quote
ZEUS Posted March 5, 2016 Posted March 5, 2016 (edited) Top it up to maximum. I think they are pretty sensitive to the level. Edited March 5, 2016 by ZEUS Quote
Kharmon Posted March 5, 2016 Author Posted March 5, 2016 Top it up to maximum. I think they are pretty sensitive to the level. Ill give it a try on monday at work all day tomorrow 😞 ill let you know if that works . 1 Quote
nissanman312 Posted March 5, 2016 Posted March 5, 2016 Yep only need to be a touch low and it will throw the light 1 Quote
Will370z Posted March 6, 2016 Posted March 6, 2016 Likely candidate can also be brake pads Brake light on under hard acceleration normally indicates pads are getting low or the brake fluid is low 1 Quote
Richf Posted March 6, 2016 Posted March 6, 2016 Just had first service ? Brake pads unlikely to be gone in 9k i wouldn't think. Brake fluid level is a common cause for sure 1 Quote
Kharmon Posted March 6, 2016 Author Posted March 6, 2016 Thanks guys ill top up the fluid tomorrow and take her for a good run lets hope that solves it if not ill get it booked into h-dev for you guys to have a look Quote
philw99 Posted March 6, 2016 Posted March 6, 2016 Brake fluid caused the problem for me, quick top up fixed the problem Quote
Kharmon Posted March 6, 2016 Author Posted March 6, 2016 Brake fluid caused the problem for me, quick top up fixed the problem Glad to hear hopefully the same here Quote
philw99 Posted March 6, 2016 Posted March 6, 2016 I'll be checking my pads as well. Assuming it's actually the fact they're low caused the problem. Quote
