Range Rover dash warning lights

[DeanV8]

Hi there

I'm new to this forum, and relatively new to Range Rover ownership, so please forgive the naivety of this question but I want to make sure I don't do any damage to my Rangie/others/me. The vehicle concerned is an '88 3.5 EFI auto.

Whilst driving home from work tonight, luckily only just before arriving home, a warning light came on, on the dash, that I don't know the meaning of.

It's on the very bottom row, and the one right in the centre. Orange coloured, and looks like a circle with three dotted lines either side at 3 and 9 o'clock.

I've checked the brake fluid, and front brake pad wear indicators (just changed the front pads, so thought I may have not re-fitted the wires firmly enough) and I can't find anything amiss.

Can't find anything relating to the "idiot lights" in Haynes, so I'm stumped.

Obviously I don't really want to drive it again until I know what's wrong, so all help gratefully received.

Cheers

Dean

That is the pad wear indicator.
You may have a bare or snapped wire giving the faulty indication.

From memory that light is the brake pad wear indicator. Given that it is something you have recently touched I would say there is a fair chance its not happy with something in the connection

Edit Deano just beat me to it. Sorry

Thanks very much for that. I'll check over the lead again.
