Brake warning lamp stays on

[AudiOso]

I just did brake pads all around this evening on my Avant and used paper towels stuffed in the reservoir top to absorb the fluid that would have backed up as the calipers were compressed.

I started the car and got the three warning beeps and the flashing BRAKE telltale indicating that the fluid level was low. I added fluid to the top of the reservoir to top it off but the telltale continues to flash.

Is there some reset to this that I don't know about?

bump, i'm having the same issue

me too. i read that you should fill the reservoir, then unscrew the little yellow cap on the reservoir and fill that too. i've done that, but continue to get the beeps-but i only get them when taking hard right turns. my car started doing that after getting ss lines put on. never did it before, and when i took it back they said it must be the sensor on the way out. whatever.

I topped the reservoir off to the fill line, drove the car, checked it again and then tapped the sides of the reservoir with the handle of a screwdriver several times. I didn't hit it too hard, just solid taps. The float had stuck itself in the low position. Once I got it to free up the telltale stopped illuminating and the chime stopped.
