2001 Accord EX brake light on dash
 
We have a 2001 Accord EX coupe with 45K miles. Recently the Brake
light on the dash stays lit most of the time while driving. What kind
of problems can this indicate?

Not sure about that model, but it could indicate low brake fluid.

Or your parking brake isn't off all the way or switch is bad.

It means you have to look in the glovebox. Does your insurer know you've
been driving the car with the BRAKE light on?? I guess if the horn
works, it's OK, right?

If you are talking about the "brake light" at the Door and Brake Lamp
Monitor, it's a burned out tail light. Honda brake lamps are special
so buy "Honda" lamps at AutoZone or whatever auto shop you go to.

I keep seeing this -
"Special"? How? If the number is right, the lamp is right. Correct me if I am
wrong.

That's right. Honda tranny fluid is 'special', but a brake lamp is a
brake lamp. Honda doesn't manufacture brake lamps.
