No!, Now I want to know when it lights up.
fog light warning?
Diff lock warning?
A cheap and cheerful pretend alarm led?
Cheers
Probably a pretend.

If it is anything like mine was when I first got it you will take the dash panel out and behind it there will be a mass of scotch-lock connectors and cut wires all over the place which attach to nothing and you will have to spend ages removing it all, soldering things back together and heat shrinking it. I would not be surprised if it is not connected to anything, but it could just as likely be connected to something completely random you would never have thought of.
While tracing the wiring I would check the bulb, as that might be the reason it is not lighting up when you are playing with switches.

I got new old stock brake pads form ebay last time so they are genuine but about half the price you would pay at the dealers. Usually I would fit mintex, but have used EBC in the past. The important thing when you replace them is to check the caliper is functioning properly otherwise no matter what pads you fit your are not going to brake very well. (If it is not, rebuild it with stainless pistons rather than replacing it!)
Brake brand seems to be something very personal and every one has an opinion on similar to waxing the chassis!
Cheers for that. Buying some in next hour.

Just noticed you were looking for discs as well, last time I replaced those I just used the standard solid britpart items, which have been fine for me with no issue. However I know others have complained about them not being true.
Yeah. I've got it in my notepad that there's no point changing the discs and not changing the pads. But on advisory it's discs pitted. It is pulling to left slightly when vraking

That is likely to be an issue on the right hand side either with the caliper, where one of the pistons is sticking usually due to corrosion, or the brake pads on the right side have become contaminated with oil. If it is the former then replacing the discs and pads will not make any difference.
