    Check you brake fluid level. The Spyder seems to be very sensitive to the level.

    +1 on the brake fluid level. Having the warning upon braking or on a hill is a sure sign. It has to be full right to the mark (ledge). Even a tiny bit low can cause a warning.

    Thank you for your input. I added some to the ledge and going for a ride. I noticed that the caps are not as tight as i would expect. I also made sure my battery terminals are tight. once again i thank you all have a nice day
