Anytime ur brake light comes on it autonatically disables traction control, you fuel gauge going open circuit(full) is probably a bad float

Best Answer Mark helpful

You are right, removed brake reservoir and cleaned out reservoir, float was gummed up, now float is operating fine and no lights are on, running like a top, Thank you for the diagnosis. For anyone else out there you can remove the brake reservoir without getting air in the system because the brake fluid stays full in the master cylinder itself.
