Cool Brake warning light

My brake warning light has been on for a few weeks now and wont come off. I topped off my break fluid and recently changed my rear brakes and had my front brakes checked. The guy who did my brake job said the light should come off on it's own but it still hasn't turned off..does anyone know what the problem might be??

Usually low brakes because when the fluid gets low its because the pads are low and hve reduced the fluid level to trigger the light. I never top off the fluid because if your guy was wrong and you had to change your pads, all that fluid will rise and overflow out. If you are positive your brakes are fine and your ebrake is not pulled up slightly, try disconnecting your battery for 10 minutes. It may just go away.

hOW MANY MILES AND HAVE YOU EVER CHANGED THE PADS>? I would double check the pads myself.
