    91 Accord SE 4door Automatic brake light that comes on intermittent….

    Hello to all 1st and foremost thanks to all that helped out with my previous inquiries on the site. I need some more help now as I am chasing a ghost here that Is what I feel like. I have a brake warning light that comes on only when the car is sitting in the sun for a while and then goes off after I drive the car then remove the key and then restart the car. This warning light usually means there is a bulb burned out but obviously I have a short as I have already replaced all the bulbs in the rear of the car. Also I will add that all the lights are working fine in the rear of the car as I saw them working when someone else used the brakes for a test. I am at a loss here on what to check next and what could be wrong seeing that I have already troubleshooted a lot of things. I believe this to be model specific as I owned other 90 accords (2 door) and this never happened before. I am sure there must be someone on these forums with the same/similar problem on the same year/model Honda. Hence why I am typing here and if so can someone please advise me why this is happening and what can be done to fix this problem. I also might add there is a strange looking computer box with 2 lights in the back trunk on the passengers side. I don’t know what it is or what it does? I am wondering if this control box could be connected to my problem. Please advise me if anyone on here knows anything. Since the problem only occurs for a short while and then goes away it is very hard for me to trace/find any short in the car or where it might be. Does anyone on here know if these accords were prone to have shorts in the rear of the cars wiring? If so where is the short as that could be my problem? Thanks for your help on here look forward to hearing from some of you.

    The light that says "brake" is telling you that your emergency brake is on. Something needs to be adjusted, or a sensor replaced. Seeing as you have an automatic, I assume that you don't use the emergency brake very often (I know I never did when I drove automatics... with a manual, it's necessary.)

    It should be a fairly easy thing to fix.

    That box in the back, if it's what I am thinking, should be an amplifier. Part of your sound system. I believe the SE has a Bose system, and has an external amp in the back. I may be wrong, as I've never actually owned an SE... if you can take a picture of that box, it'd help us identify it if it's something else.

      Are you talking about the BRAKE light that comes on for low fluid/parking brake

      Or the BRAKE LAMP light which is in the bottom right of the gauge cluster and comes on to warn you of a faulty brake bulb?

      Also the box on the right side of your trunk is for the ABS

        Ah, ABS... yet another thing I've never had in a CB! I thought all ABS controls were located up front, though... no?

          The abs reservoir and accumulator and all that stuff are under the hood

          The actual computer for the abs is bolted to the rear right side of the trunk

          The bose amp your thinking of only came on 1993 se's and was under the rear deck on the left side, you would need to get down on your back and look up to see it.
