Help...brake Warning Light

Been having this problem for a day or so now...but dash board brake light comes on once and a while flashing and 3 beeps(annoying as feck).Any ideas??

Low brake fluid, usually due to pad wear and moving away from the sensor usually when going round corners.

mine did this the other night, then stopped.

Mine wasnt even when going round a corner, the car was parked in a car park, and it did it.

Mines booked into Skoda anyways to check out why the airbag light is on, so I will get them to have a butchers at my brake fluid as well.

All under warranty of course

Handbrake swtch could be faulty.

Slight brake fluid smell in the cabin - are you sure that it is not some oil burning off on the exhaust?
