Have a problem brake light and traction light comes on

They work as a team to indicate low fluid.

I have been having the exact same issue... I topped off my fluid, however the lights still come one. Could it be something else? One or more sensors gone bad? I'm just hesitant to take it in and pay for a diagnostic...

do not top off brake fluid, when you change the pads and push the piston in it will overflow and ruin the paint and even then you will be overfilled when you do the new pads

Put a couple of rags under the the master cylinder to catch the brake fluid like we all do. The float sensor in the master cylinder is set too high. If the fluid gets a tad low. The Anti-slip light and brake light WILL come on. And the fluid level is not that low. You should read more on past threads, and the fixes that was done.
