Oldsmobile Silhouette Brake fluid Problem

I have a 02 sihlouette and i am having troubles. I had run low on brake fluid, so i put some in. Immediatly my low brake fluid light came on, as did my door open light and rear hatch ajar light. I took to a local machanic to see what was goin on he tried to hook up his computer and would not read because the voltage was fluctuating at a really low rate. He said that i would probably have to take it to gm. I was woundering if you had any ideas. Thanks

First question is why you ran low on brake fluid. Any leaks, are your brakes worn out. SO you have some battery issues or you have some wiring issues. Strange that you low brake fluid light comes on after you fill it. Well it sounds beyond your local guy, the dealer would have the best ideas
