Light was flashing on the dash coming back from ASDA tonight which has got me a bit confused...i've just checked the books and it says its the front brake pad wear warning light!

Before anyone says it, pads are fine as of last week...atho i noticed one of the wear warning cables has severed...could this be somehow causing the problem? It seems to happen going accross bumps and was permanently on at the lights for a bit but went off the rest of the trip. :?

Normally i'd just wait for something to break before worrying about it but i've got a 300 mile round trip to do tomorrow and i don't want to end up stranded in shitkickerville...

Thoughts?

Just cut the wires, and remove the sensors from teh discs, works for me :)

Alternativly could be a short somewhere

Yeah, must be a short i guess :?

Just need reassurance that it's not gonna interfere with anything else on the car... :oops:

Phew - relief! I might just get up earler and chop the remains of the cable away so its not flashing the whole way...
