Fluid reservoir is filled
Pads and rotors and all four corners are new (this was happening before replacement)
Emergency brake switch has been cleaned and operation verified

Any ideas on why the red brake light on the dash intermittently comes on and off?
 
Emergency brake is likely not fully releasing mechanically in the rear. I have a similar issue, but haven’t had time to chase it. For now I fiddle with the E-brake lever until it goes away.
 
Most likely E brake. Check/rebuild parking brake hardware at rear and check/lube/replace cable.
 
Good tips - will check them all this weekend!
