My theory so far: the pump was failing and could not deliver the required pressue. This lead to the dashlight not clearing.
Well I still have no proof but I might take the pump apart at some point.
Here is a picture of the motor inside... it looked pristine, like new, see picture.

yeah, the motor is in great shape, you can sell it for a couple of bucks on ebay. wish i could get my hands on the motor, my 2nd replacement unit is failing again and its either the motor or piston assy
the 2nd likely culprit is the oring on the piston assy. its a 60 dollar part.
the accumulator rarely goes bad, its just a metal cylinder and an o ring on top. its easy to see/know if the accumulator is leaking, as slight fluid would be seen leaking from the top/connection
anyway great news your brakes are working ok now
