    Ya, fluid is good. Checked that first.

    I am leaning towards a warped front right rotor or seizing caliper. I had my left front caliper replaced about 3k miles ago due to heavy corrosion and seizing, so it may be that is the issue on the front right as well now.

    When it rains it pours. Been a rough last 2 weeks with cars for me.

    Any chance there might also be some sort of buildup on one of your front ABS speed sensors? Wouldn't some excess dirt or rust fooling one of the speed sensors into "seeing" one of the wheels as not-turning/locked-up start pulsing the ABS system?

    Other than that possibility, the brake fluid being low is the simplest reason for the "Brake" light remaining on.
