    Parking brake light comes on with moderate acceleration.

    I recently changed all pads, front rotors, SS brake lines and brake fluid on my 08 STI. I have about 2k on the new brake parts. When ever I accelerate about 75% throttle the parking brake light will come on, though no other symptoms occur. Any comments on why this happens or has this happened to you?

    Check the fluid level in the reservoir. If it is low, top up and double check all connections on the lines for leaks.
