Default Brakes system

Afternoon all had a bit of an issue today with my brakes on my 3 door. The pump would not prime and build pressure it just kept on running. It seemed like it was not sucking the oil as the reservoir level remained the same.
And as a result the handbrake/pump warning light came on(As did not reach pressure), it has done it twice now over the last three week.
It only seems to do it when it's hot (Malta 32 degrees) as if you leave the car for an hour or so the pump primes fine and the pressure switch shuts it down as it should.
I have been trying to find out what the small brown relay and 2 x brown Diodes I believe are for? They are located next to the ABS ecu on driver's side on the same buzz bar holder as the 2 x ABS relays and fuses?
Any help re the above issue would be great , anyone know about the tevis brake system?

Thanks very much.

Tim.
