​Try adding 1-3 tablespoons of fluid to both reservoirs, see if that "fixes" the problem.

Brake failure scrolls across my panel from time to time, will go away when I refresh fluids and bleed brakes over the winter.

Brake Failure message with a C1282 code has nothing to do with brake fluid level. That is a low pressure fault. It can only be reset with BUDS or a short procedure by the operator. Make sure the key has been turned off for more than 30 seconds. Turn on the ignition key. Wait for the screen to finish booting up. Press the brake pedal hard enough to activate the low pressure switch. If you have good hearing it will be the 2nd click. While holding the brake pedal down. Turn the ignition key off and wait 30 seconds. Release the brake pedal.

So how did you get a low pressure fault. A leak in the brake system? Bad fluid?

Ok that explains it. You pushed in the rear brake caliper piston. Then the first time you press the brake pedal is with the key on. The pedal traveled too far before the rear brake circuit pressured up. Next time press the brake pedal a couple times until it firms up before you turn on the key.
