Brakes

Do you have a Haynes manual? I'm assuming you checked the fluid level in the reservoir. Have you visually inspected the brakes?

Brakes are pretty straight forward. You can fix it.

try moving this to the brakes section

INSPECT YOUR BRAKES!

Clicking? The only way that can happen is if something is worn THROUGH or has fallen off. Like, your rotor is gone.

Rear brake problems such as leaks or excessive heat can light both the RABS and BRAKE lights.

Thanks for the help guys, I found out my rear brake cylinders in the drums are leaking. But that's the least of my problems now. My right side axle fell out of the housing, not completely but close. Luckily I was only doin 25 when it happens
