It pops up for a second or 2, the car then brakes, but when the light goes off, everything is back to normal. Should I be worried?

You most likely have a problem with the wheel sensor on one of the wheels. Anytime your brakes are malfunctioning, it is a time to be concerned. Take the car to a dealer and have them look at the brakes.
When the light comes on, it usually means that the traction control is active. Good luck.

It looks like the brake swap. i'm guessing this is a ford. that's extremely difficulty-unfastened. Does the gentle close off in case you pull up on the brake pedal? I had a windstar with the comparable subject. you additionally can verify for a keep in mind in this subject. VW has a keep in mind for this, and that i belive that another manufactorers do aswell. If that's no longer the answer you additionally can verify the trailer wiring if equiped. sturdy success.

it sounds like you have an abs sensor that is giving false readings, and possibly activating your traction control system, it would be a good idea to have that checked out before bad weather hits so your anti-lock brake system is working properly.

Tow your car to the shop and have the ABS computer diagnsosed for codes.

What kind of car?
That doesn't sound good - you should probably have someone who knows what they are doing look at it.
