brake light flashing sporadically then stops

sup ppl!!

so get this, as of late, my car has been flashing the brake light every once in a blue moon and today it just happened to stay flashing for about 5 seconds. and its not a sequential pulse, but a static, no sense making type of flashing. it only does it when i start the car. and maybe once or twice while driving. but mostly in park. ima check the fluids but i donbt its that. being that it flashes sooooo weird.

anyway, idk if this has anything to do with it, but i pulled code 43 when i jumped it. ima check the wiring to the knock sensor since i disconnected the esc and it made no difference except setting off the cel ...

lmk pros!!!

Maybe a frayed wire or poor connection somewhere. Just a thought..
