Brake and traction control light staying on

ZeeZee

Just checked both brake fluid reservoirs and they are just about halfway between Min and Max on each. I'll try topping them off tomorrow with fresh fluid and see if that helps. Although I don't notice much brake fade with the pedal, but who knows, maybe this is causing it.

What brake fluid should I buy? I can go to the dealer and get some but it would be easier to top them off with fluid from a store if they have an equivalent.

Thanks!

Low level will trip alarms long before it gets low enough to feel.

For a DD, as long as it meets the specs in the Owner's Manual, you'll be OK. For higher performance fluid recommendations, search is your friend.

There's only one brake fluid reservoir. The large one is the brakes. The other (small) reservoir is the clutch.

Same thing happened to me. Problem was it was while on track.
Finished that session with no problems and checked brake fluid level.
Half way between min and max. Next session on second lap my
traction control shut down and my *** end was kicking out on down shifts
if the car wasn't going in a straight line. Pulled off track and was done for the day. Saw my mechanic and he suggested filling the reservoir to the top.
In the mean time he pulled the plug and wire connected to the reservoir and
everything went back to normal. Once I got some more of my Motul 660, I filled the reservoir to the max level put the plug back in and the issue has not
re-appeared.
