Theres a process to rebleed the system which may help. I believe the manual download has it or you can look it up.
You may have to let it gravity bleed (and keep the resevior full) to refill the pump and get any trapped air out.

Had the same problem when I replaced the brake line along the frame after I bled them the light came back, I ended up cracking all the bleeders to let it gravity bleed on thier own and the light went away. Just make sure you dont let it run out of fluid. check on it every few minutes.
