The warning lights on the dashboard are meant to alert you to any problems with your car. Brake light warnings are usually caused by a brake fluid leak, which can be caused by a faulty brake line or a leak in the hydraulic system. If you have had both front and back brakes done, then it is possible that there is an issue with the brake lines.

Why is my brake light on after changing my brakes?
This alerts you to a potentially serious brake fluid issue. If you perform a brake job and don't properly move the caliper pistons so they're contacting the pad backing plate, you can force the tapered pin off center, turning on the BRAKE light.
