I found my almost constant brake failure light problem. Boy do I feel dumb! Beyond humble.
The switch at the brake pressure sensor was loose! I had it off last year to equalize the pressure and I must have just put it on finger tight.
Contrary to some, you do not have to bleed the brakes if you pull the switch out. Just have the switch out, pump the brakes to get equal pressure on both sides and put the switch back in. Don't forget to tighten it up with a 15mm wrench!

The car is sweet!
