Default Brake Warning Light

The brake warning light goes on after about 15 minutes of driving. Brakes are ok. When I start I notice the pump can run about 30 seconds after I turn on the switch before starting.

I have check over the system and I cannot find any leaks. Brake fluid changed last year.

Do I start changing out components? Will this show a fault code?

This is not the emerency brake light. This car has the turbo brakes with pressure assist. The light is above the emergency brake light.

There is a "Brake Pad" warning light that could fluctuate if one of the 4 lines is not seated properly at the plugs next to the wheels. It wouldn't be worn pads, as that breaks the circuit and the light would be illuminated all of the time.
