Bled the brakes, now BRAKE light is ON

A) This is a continuation of https://www.rx7club.com/forum/showth...readid=107264.

B) I bled the brakes, they work great now. However, my BRAKE light on the dashboard is ON.

C) I checked the fluid, it is slightly above the MINIMUM notch, so I will top it off later.

D) Why is the lilght on? What is the problem? Is it because the fluid is on the MIN - and simply needs topping off?

E) Other problems?

The light is on because the fluid is low.
