Check your brake fluid. That light also comes on when brake fluid is low. If it is low, check your whole system for leaks, especially around the ABS box if you have one. If you can't find any leaks, check your pads, you may need new ones. As the pads wear down, more fluid enters the calipers to keep the pistons in a partially extended position, and the resivoir level goes down.

hmm, best poke your head into the suspension/wheels/tires/brakes section and do some reading.
