Ran into a wierd situation today. We were out for an extended drive and I noticed the "BRAKE FLUID" indicator light come on while driving, of course at just about the furthest point from home...

Pulled over as soon as it was safe to do so and checked the reservoir - right at the top fill mark, just where it was after the last flush job. Pedal felt fine, good braking, but light still on. OK, so tried turning the car off and then back on - light went out and never came back on in the next hour+ (~100 miles).

Any clue what happened? Things to look at?
