Congratulations on your car. Re: the brake warning light on. Assuming the pads are OK (check the thickness or have checked). There is a sensor - one in front (I forget which wheel) and one in rear. Look for a short two wire lead that goes into the pad area. You can replace the sensor (just a plug in ) or you can just clip the wires and join them together and tape. This will complete the circuit and the light will go out.


and if the light doesnt go out, reflow the solder joints on your instrument cluster, i bet that will fix your other light too
