Brake light on the dash, causes?

On the 2002 SLE, the ABS, and Traction Control yellow lights are on, and so is the red Brake warning light. Been this way since I bought it, brakes work perfectly fine.
The ABS and TC lights don't bother me as those are probably a bad wheel speed sensor, but what all can cause the brake warning light to be on? Fluid level is full, and parking brake is all the way up.

You may have a problem with the EBCM. I believe that will set all 3 lights. Do you have something to read ABS codes?

Nope, all I have is a ScanGauge II.

You may want to check with an Advance Auto Parts near you. Some of them have been loaning out (or will check it for you) the Actron ABS code reader.
Edit - A bad bake fluid level sensor will set the brake light, also.

My lights were all on just the same as yours turned out to be a bad ebcm. Best thing to do is get the car scanned.

Are you sure your ABS is working?
