Could be an intermittent in the brake fluid level sensor. Make sure the fluid is full. If it is then unplug the sensor and see if the problem goes away.

Thank you, but it didn’t change, I unplugged the brake fluid sensor and sometimes the brake and battery lights they apear on the dashboard and after a while they go away and after several miles they show again

Then you need the charging system tested and as the charging system is computer controlled it will need a shop that knows what they are doing or the system could be further damaged.
