Hi, I had the same problem on my 1998 Astra and was expecting the worse. The warning light used to come on and go off as it should when the ignition was turned on but after a few seconds of the engine runing, it would come on again.
It use to go off when I pressed the foot-brake pedel,stay off, but came on again.
I had just had a tow-bar and electric fitted to the car and it proved to be a fault on the wiring that the company had done (they had not clamped the feed wire to the towing electrical sockets for the brake lights tight enough) I put more pressure on each of the connectors using a pair of mole grips and it cured the problem. The main vauxhall dealer that I use for servicing, had not heard of this problem before and even their diagnostic check failed to diagnose the problem. I only found it when replacing a stop-tail light bulb whilst the problem was still at large and moved the wiring behind the back light (the stop-light worked as well.)
Hope this helps
Regards
Ken
