Hi Paul
What was just said but beat me to it :lol:
If it's the oblong one with an exclamation mark in the middle it's the central warning light which comes on when things like handbrake left on or in my case the oil level has dropped to low again. :(
There should be another warning light on the dash indicating whats actually wrong.

Time for new pads unless the sensor wire has come off.
