I'm due to drive somewhere of distance tonight and I've just finished cleaning my car (interior). I started it up to move it and the Brake warning light and an amber 'car skidding' kind of light has come on.
It was fine prior to doing anything and the brakes seem to be working. Anyone shed any light?
Fixed it:
I'm such a retard, I had the light cover off on the nearside and had to unplug the ABS to get access to it. Turns out I forgot to plug it back in all sorted now, my heart sank! lol.

Nah you won't have ESP then.
Might have knocked the ABS sensor when cleaning the wheels
