[ROVERNET - UK] 3500s brake light mystery

[Gavin.Walker at csiro.au]

Peter,
  Have you tried disconnecting the reservoirs?  It's pretty common for
the cork to become saturated and sink a bit.  The warm brake fluid would
have lower density causing them to dip a bit lower.

Hi all.

My 3500s brake warning light comes on after I've been driving a while 
and the car is good and hot. It flickers as though it is being 
activated by the fluid in the reservoir, but both reservoirs are full. 
I don't have any warning sensors connected to the pads-they're all the 
newer type without them.
After driving for about an hour, the light comes on more steadily, 
sometimes staying on for a few minutes then off again.

Anybody have any idea what might cause this?

Many thanks in advance,

Peter
