Dashboard Brake Light
I own a 2006 F150 Lariat. I have noticed lately that when I accelerate sharply my dash brake light comes on and beeps for just a moment. Wondering if anyone knows what is causing this or how to fix it. Thanks.

Check your brake fluid. The reservior has a low fluid sensor on it. If low enough, when you accelerate it is possible that the fluid can splash just below that sensor tripping the light.
It can also be a wire or connector for the ABS sensors. These run from the front hub bearing assembly and can be damaged by road debris, corrosion, etc. I beleive there is also an ABS sensor on the back axle.
