Title says it all.. when i start up in the morning its off, first bump its on, the next bump will turn it back off.. rinse wash and repeat. Have plenty of brake fluid, and when I had my CV joints replaced the mechanic said he tightened the connection on the brake line because it was loose. Suggestions? Should i look at the E-brake?

I had this problem before. Loose e-brake cable & the e-brake solenoid/sensor malfunction.

brake lights come on when the brake fuild is low, the e brake is engaged, the bulb test switch when you stat you car, and when "certain" ABS trouble codes are set. oh and a pressure differential switch too will light the brake light. yea check the e brake parts. if you dont use it everyday they can rust up and fail when you needem the most. whenever you do a brake job its wise to lube all that up and pump that brake a bunch of times to freshen it up.
