Dash Warning Lights Help

Have a small but irratating problem with the brake hydraulic & battery charging warning light glimmering (only noticable at night or in the garage)

Car has no issues with either of these(fluid level is fine and car always starts)

Anything I should check?

Thanks

It sounds to me like your alternator is on it's way out. when mine went both of these lights came on.. does it only happen at idle?

Assuming the alternator is OK (Test it...)

Then it is probably the SI board in the cluster, the batteries may be on the way out, or have leaked.

Hmmm sounds like the alternator then, all service lights etc are fine

Thanks for the pointers
