Dash brake light?

What causes the dash brake light to illuminate other than the Parking Brake being applied? My light was working fine, but then I changed my brake pads and bled the system and now the light will not turn off!! Any ideas on this one? Dash lights are this most annoying thing for me.

Low brake fluid will throw the light.

Jiggle the sensor in the cap, it could be stuck.

sometimes you have to fill it past the full line for it to shut off.

There is a sensor in the cap? Well that might explain it, my fluid was really low while I was bleeding. Thanks man.
