The owner's manual should have info about the brake indicator light. The flashing indicator light means that there is a problem w the brake light circuit or the brake light itself is faulty.
Verify that the bulb is good. Turn the ignition switch to ON: the tail light should come on; apply the brake - the tail light should get brighter.

Honestly I'm a little in barest about it. Ok so I checked the bulb, wiring, everything, but when i checked the bulb i just looked at it. So yesterday I wondered if the tail light socket was all corroded, I took out the bulb and it felt apart. The inside of the 2057 bulb "blow up". I REPLACED THE BULB AND ALL WAS GOOD
