We have an 06 Uplander and had been experiencing an intermittent Service Brake System message and light. This is the service brakes not ABS message.
It was needing pads so I thought maybe it was just low brake fluid. I replaced the front pads today and now the light and message are constant. I didn't open anything up. The pedal feels fine.
Any ideas what might be causing it?

As first fix, I would bleed the brakes. Sounds like air in brakes or air bubble within ABS unit. If that doesn't work, get a reader and "read its code". Its code will advise if sensor problem or some other problem. Bleeding brakes with 2 people should be easy. re: One person to press the brake peddle and a different person to wrench its bleed screw (on further wheel hub working closer to Master Brake Cylinder).
Good luck...
