1980 300SD - Brake light comes on during acceleration
My brake light sometimes comes on when I am accelerating.
My brakes work just fine. Any ideas?

Do you mean the red "brake" light in the dash cluster? if so, the fluid is slightly low in the master cylinder and the float within it drops when the car raises up on accell. Top off the brake fluid and try again.

Yeah. It is the red "BRAKE" light in the cluster. I'll try putting more fluid in. Thanks.
