It reads like you have low brake fluid in the brake fluid revivor. If after adding the brake light remains, then you should get the Mazda looked at ASAP for safety purposes to make sure nothing else is going wrong with your brake system.

Today, the mechanic was back from holidays.
Quick answer:
2 new winter tires were low 25 each. After filling the tires. The yellow brake light went out.
If happens again soon,mechanic will inspect tire for slow leak
Thanks all for messages

Glad it was corrected. Maybe next time post a picture of your dash which light is on and not call a tire light a BRAKE light?
