My battery and brake light always comes on when driving at high rmps mostly or when just driving normal at random times. I don't do much highway driving so I never see this problem before so was doing 80 and my brake and battery light came on bright red normally it just comes in dim. My question is what do u guys think might be causing this problem? Here is a video of it don't mind the music in the back from haha any ideas will help out thanks!!

Charging system issue. Likely a bad ground or inconsistent voltage from alternator. My lights were coming on like that just before my alternator puked. I would measure voltage at the back of the alternator, and then again at the battery. Should be putting out 14+ volts at idle in both places.
