Unknown warning light

[V®6]

Hey guys

I've got a warning light that has come on in my dash but I have no idea what it's for. The light looks like a circle with three dots down either side of the circle. It's also an orange light not red, any help is appreciated.

sounds like a brake pad wear sensor?

Is it the one next to the ABS light? shown here:



It is the brake pad wear sensor (I didn't know we actually had one ) referenced in the owners handbook on page 46, if you don't have it, download it here:

For those that have it on permanently and don't care... You knows it's dead easy to remove the bulb right??

Please explain how.....

The cluster is attached by two screws, it then hinges forward form the top and lifts out (two plugs in the back are relatively tight so small hands are a bonus, but I can do it with my large hands

Pull appropriate bulb from the bottom set.

I dont want to pull the bulb since I'd like to get it fixed one day.

Come to think of it, it was meant to be fixed when I had my brakes upgraded!!

I know my brakes are fine though. New rotors, new pads, all the callipers are fine and the fluid is brand new ATE racing blue.
