Brake light on after jumpstart car

Honda HR-V 2023 Awd  42000 miles
I have a 2023 HRV and two weeks ago. I had to get a jumpstart and I took the car to AutoZone to have the battery tested and it says that the battery is weak, however, I'm starting now the electronic brake light has come on and it will not go away. It says I need to take it to the dealership and to check my manual break if I have to stop, however this problem was not there prior to jumpstart the car and the person at AutoZone had suggested that maybe it's because I had to jumpstart it and a wire got disconnected or something

I also own a 2023 HR-V and one month ago I also had to get a jump, anyway I took it back to the dealership and had the battery tested and same results as you did, they said my battery was weak... bottom line I had to get a new battery installed. I told them I was disappointed with my car as it was only 2 1/2 years old and the battery shouldn't have died that fast

So I took it to autozone first and the battery still was weak but long story short the light was on because of the jump, I flipped the brake on and off and it went away

Brake system error

Honda HR-V 2016 Hatchback 46000 miles
Brake system error pops up when sudden brake or in a bumpy road. Brake system error will disappear once you restart the engine. Kindly enlighten us with error. Thanks!

Parking brake alert

Honda HR-V 2016 HR-V 120000 miles
Parking brake alert comes on after parking brake has been released at 5km/h. But no problem with the brakes. It keeps beeping throughout the journey but when the car is at a dead stop it stops once it starts moving it starts again.

TPMS Alert, System Emission Alert and Brake System Alert

Honda HR-V 2020  6623 miles
The TPMS alert is still on even after calibrating the tires and resetting the on-board computer, I also suddenly started seeing two alerts simultaneously, one for the emission system and another for the electric brake system alternating with each other, one day later I had another alert from the fuel tank cap that stopped by itself.

Rear running lights not working. SolvedSolved

Honda HR-V 2020 EX, 1.8L 86651 miles
Exactly as the title says. When I switch the headlights on, the rear tail running lights will not turn on nor will the tag lights. My brake lights, reverse lights, and blinkers all come on when they are supposed to just my taillights and tag lights. Also, my tail lights are stock LED diodes clusters. I didn't have to change out bulbs for them. I've traced both sides all the way back from the lights themselves to the fuse panel. No knicks in the wires or shorts.

Hi there, did you ever get this issue resolved? Thank you.

Best answer (according to Rabbittron)

I did finally figure it out. On the driverside, under the ECU and beside the battery, there is a small, dark gray or black weatherproof box about the size of a deck of cards but 3or 4 times as thick with a rather large wiring harness connected to the bottom. It has around 8 to 10 relays inside. Upon inspection, over half of the relays were disconnected. I reconnected all of them, cranked the car, and everything came on as it was supposed to. I feel this relay box needs to be included on this website. It was a critical relay box that I have yet to find on any website.

Thanks Rabbittron, this is very helpful. I will check it out and agree that the relay box that you describe should be included on the website. Also, motor vehicle manufacturers should get their act together and do a better job describing what each individual fuse and relay protects. Descriptions are ambiguous and poorly described. Auto fuse and relays should all be labeled the same for each vehicle for their purpose and this should at least be a US standard if not international. Thanks again, ScareCrow.
