Default Brake fluid level?

Hi folks,

Just recently, I began to get a low brake fluid level warning light coming on. This is the red circle, beside the handbrake "on" light in the bottom right hand side of the dash. (RHD) I checked the fluid level, which is fine and thought maybe it was just a bad connection of some sort, especially as it disappeared for a while. All the while the braking is just as good as it has always been, with no sponginess etc.
But now it is back, accompanied by the word "Fluid" in the odo panel on the dash. Still the level is fine and I'm wondering if the fluid itself is causing this? I am due to replace the brake fluid over the next week or so and this may help.
We shall see, but I also notice that it doesn't seem to happen when driving on the straight and flat, but does occur when I encounter a roundabout or sharpish turns.
I removed the filler cap and cleaned the inside of it, just in case.

Any thoughts appreciated, with thanks.
