I've fitted the front Cossie brake conversion to my S1 today and the orange brakewear light flashes for a bit then goes off. The thing is, it's not the only light on, I get the one with the dipstick thing in the puddle (is this the oil level warning one?), the coolant level one (even though the level is fine), and the petrol one (even though its half full).

Why do they flash? Why do they only do it now and again? Why didn't I buy a newer car?

Edit: - there are no wear indicators wires on the new pads.
