Brake warning light flickers are often caused by low brake fluid levels.
Electrical problems certainly indicate some sort of problem that should be
looked at. Air bag warning light problems are usually triggered by a poor
connection below the seat and once on require resetting by your garage or
the proper tool. This can also be caused by a faulty "clock spring" You
should really look to www.gtvv6.com where you will find solutions to many of
your problems and experience of many other GTV/Spider owners.
