Default 91 Camry Electrical Gremlin?

Hello to everyone! I have a 91 Camry V6 w/272k (I have owned it since 1998-best car I have ever owned!) Just lately, when I start the car, (not all the time) three of the dash warning lites come on:
1. brake lite-emergency brake not engaged, hydraulic brakes working fine
2. lite bulb warning-have checked- all bulbs working
3. alternator-checked with DVM-when this lite is on the system is not charging
After a few minutes, these lites go out, and the alternator shows it is again charging
I suspect an electrical connection somewhere, but have no idea as to where to even begin. Thanx in advance for looking, and for any ideas!

Not sure.

Try the Autozone website at www.autozone.com for a wiring diagram.

The brake light could be for the brake fluid level. Try disconnecting the brake fluid level switch.

Check the wiring.

The light bulb warning lamp can come on if the sensor box fails. Sensor located in the forward drivers side of the trunk.
