There is a brake fluid sensor located in the reservoir at the master cylinder. When the brake fluid is low it will turn the light on.

How can you find out why the cruise control on a 1999 Ford Windstar no longer works like what is it and is it hard to get to?

If your brake fluid is also running low, you probably have a help in your cruise control brake pressure sensor. The brake fluid shorts out the sensor and eventually you'll blow the fuse for the abs, AC, and spedometer/odemeter. Replace the brake pressure sensor. Its under the master cylinder resevour. Remove the air filter first and there lots of room to work. This is a relatively easy fix, the part is about $35.
