Driving along today, Brake warning light comes on, chime starts.

270,000 miles. Brake switch tests fine. What else can cause this. I have earthed the brake switch nothing.

Brake fluid level is perfect.

Thanks Heath

If it's just the "Brake" light I don't think their will be any codes. Looking like it's seeing the parking brake engaged. Our trucks will chime at us after seeing wheel speed and the park brake engaged. I know your setup is a bit different but I think when the brake wire is grounded is what translate into the parking brake being engaged. May check the wiring circuit for being shorted somewhere.
