More context about 'faire gaffe' from lawlessfrench.com:
Usage notes: The informal French expression fais gaffe is very minimal, as the negation is only implied.* Une gaffe is a blunder or mistake, so literally fais gaffe means "make [a] mistake" – indeed, if you use the expression faire une gaffe in anything other than the imperative, it means "to make a mistake."
Par exemple…Il a vraiment fait gaffe hier. He really messed up yesterday. J’espère ne pas faire gaffe. I hope I don’t mess up.
But fais gaffe means just the opposite: it implores you to be careful, to not make a mistake.
Par exemple…Il y a beaucoup de vent, fais gaffe ! It’s very windy, be careful!
| Fais gaffe au soleil.
| Be careful of the sun.
