As I was driving my car a new warning dash light came on today(new to me). Its a little car that looks like its flashing the rear lights. Its right on top of where the ABS warning light is. Anyone know what this is?

After i turned off the car, it went away. But then after i got home, It turned on again.

Its probably a loose contact In your tail or brake lights.. Or it could be a bulb with some corrosion causing bad contact... go over the bulbs first then the wires..

It could be your brake lights, light on the wing or rear window, rear quarter panel blinker lights, lisence plate light...your brake lights may still work but are they equal brightness?

If they're all working and the light is still on, the sensor box is the problem. The solder joints iirc go bad on them. There are threads on how to go about fixing, it just search for it.

What about if you have an 88 N/A Supra, and you switched to the 89+3 piece wing and tailights and you're having the same problem?? Buuuuut only the light from the wing doesnt turn on when hitting the brakes. Like if it aint connected but it actually is! What can it be??
