BAS/ESP Light

Hey there,

Just wondering if you guys know what is up with the BAS/ESP light. I hear its a failed brake sensor behind the pedal. Has anyone else had similar problems? I hope this one is a do-it-yourself situation. Let me know what you guys have done.

Thanks!

How can you make this commendation when you do not even know what year and model the OP has?
