little orange light

<< < (2/2)

petergalileo:
That light is supposed to come on with the handbrake as a bulb test.  As your pads wear down once they get to a thickness where you should replace them the light will come on intermittently while you brake.  After a few more miles it will be on more or less permanently.

To be honest, ignore it, check your brakes visually (you already have I know).  I always think the brakes are the single most important item on any car and relying on a warning light is nuts.

lyndon:
Thanks. I totally agree with you. Brakes,tyres and wheel nuts. All hold you on the road.
