Doug's Fix #37 - What do these lights mean?

Aeroman, I get the warning beeps on rare occasion too. Was worried about it at first, but it only happens if the car has been sitting a week+ without being driven. As far as I know, the beep chimes if the pump has to run longer than the computer thinks that it should to pressurize the system.
Doug - yours is running completely normal.

I had theese lights along with some more lighting up and staying lit till I had driven the car for 10-30 seconds. If I held the brake pedal pressed while staring, I could feel vibrations in the pedal, and sometimes the "master alarm" activated while depressed.
Prior to a track-meet, I bled the brakes using just a hose from the brake nipples (barely open) to a bottle, pumping the brake pedal slowly and constantly refilling the fluid. Ignition off.
After having bled all 4 callippers (flushing about 1 litre of fluid), theese lights turn off instantly as the car is started! No more "buzz" in the brake pedal, so I can now start the engine with the brakes applied.
