I have not performed a search for the specific problem yet, but I thought I would put it on here first.
This morning I got two warning lights. Warning light 1 and 2 are flashing. I still have normal braking capability and I have not noticed any kind of failure except the flashing lights. I hoping it is something simple but what does everyone think?

Pull the rear seat and check the brake fluid resevoirs . If low refill, a low level will trigger the light

Thanks, I will check that after work. How does a low battery affect the system?

In many ways but mainly by NOT STARTING :p

I am hoping I dodged the bullet today. It seems when I got home and fired up the LT, there was no fault warning. The rear reservoir was a bit under the maximum volume so I added a bit. I rode it for about 20 miles and no problems. who knows

You will need new rear pads soon (very easy job), remember to adjust the fluid level after you replace the pads. :)

Remember to drain out some of the fluid you replaced before you push back the pistons.

I have seen it done a couple times. The only problem I have seen is getting that damn cotter pin back in again. I already have the pads so I hope to do it soon.
