Anybody know what the red light is just to the right of the handbrake indication light on the dashboard? (below the speedo)

Hope that makes sense, mine came on today. I will go and take a picture if i need to.

Thanks

Sure does, that red service LED came on today. I will be servicing it this week/weekend and resetting the lights.

Always a job that needs doing :)
