check your brake fluid. It usually comes on when its low.

He's right check your brake fluid, mine flickered when the fluid was slightly over half. If the fluid is that low you also might want to check the pads and shoes they might be pretty worn.

Yup, I just changed my brakes and the fluid and it ended the flickering brake light. Also if you are gonna do the brake change and you have rear drums. Make sure and check the E-brake control arm. Its known to get stuck.... getting that moving again will help to stop the flickering over bumps.
