Re: Ford Motorhome F53 brake light indicator Model year 1999 by BUBBA THE BUS TECH

So it is heat, time and slope/acceleration related. Cool. Three wild guesses: 1st and most likely the wire that grounds your warning light through the swtich has a bre spot or similar and after it warms up enough it will swing over far enough to contact a ground. If you have a park brake that will trigger it you need to check there as well. 2nd the switch has a bad detent and when the viscocity of the brake fluid drops again it will move over and operate the switch. Last and least likely: the park brake lever moves and triggers the light (if you have one) Good Luck
