05 WK "Service Electric Brake System" Light

I know there has been alot of discussion of this issue, but i think i bring a new one to the table. About two weeks ago i was just driving down a flat road and all of my electrical shut off. No headlight, dash lights, radio, heater, faults, anything. It was off for 1-2 seconds then back on, when it came back on the Service Electric Brake System light was on. It continues to do this at completely random times and the light does not always come on. Any input?
Thanks, Tim

I have the same problem. Happened about 3 times since April, except I have the heater and radio still working. Only got the brake message once. I found that a few people have had the same issue and it seems to be the ignition switch. My dealership has never heard of the issue so I said screw them and have been riding on the problem. I might or might not get it fixed lol

OK so, as of now the ignition switch is the problem, and it did fix it. No more problem!!
