It is possible arter doing a break job that you had lost some fluid. When pushing the front pistons back in, the master cylinder might have had a little to much back pressure and a lil' bit of fluid might have "burped" out of the master cylinder. Or When Fixing the rear shoes you might have hit the wheel cylinder and sucked in alittle bit of air which might have made it back to the proportionating valve and might be activating an "idiot light"
Hope this helps
