well that just means you need to do maintenance.

inspect your brakes and if they are okay, replace the sensors if they are faulty. your car has 2, front and rear, one for each, front driver side and rear passenger *i think. simply unplug sensor with tweezers and push back on. follow the wire to the box and swap the connections.

Might as well do a brake service. search how to reset your maintenance light.
