Dashboard Brake Light

Hi,

I have a 91 Honda Civic DX 1.5L (Stick-Shift) with 188,000 miles.

Problem:
1. The first problem I encountered while driving was when I brake, the car did not stop as it suppose to. Instead the car was only slowing down and the brake pedal slowly goes to the floor. This happend a couple of times when I tried to brake. I drove the car to a parking lot and stepped on the brake pedal a couple of times and was able to get the brake working again.

2. After I pumped the brake pedal several times and got the brake pedal to work, I noticed the brake light from the dashboard turn-on and I was not able to get it turn-off.

Does anyone know what the problem is? Thank you in advanced to answer my question! :Cry:

First of all the clue should be that the pedal disappeared and you had problems stopping. If you continue to drive the vehicle you are crazy. This car has a failing master cylinder or slave. Please fix it soon!
