Be sure that your fluid reservoir is still full. On some ABS systems, the proper way to check fluid level is to pump brakes down as much as 30 strokes, with engine off, before checking. Look in your owners manual to see if it tells you. It also may be written on the side, on top of, or on a sticker by the master cylinder. If the person who replaced your brake parts and bled the system did not pump it down before checking the level, you may need more fluid.

Stupid question but is this a 4 wheel ABS vehicle and you used non-abs rotors?

Also the plunger float in the master cyl. may be stuck causing the light ..take the cap off and see if you can see a plastic thing that you can push down with your finger in the middle of the fluid... If you can't see it or it don't move.. it's Master cly. time

But I'd check the second thing first

Fluid is low or you have a problem in your braking system. get a code reader and see if its throwing any codes
