I still havent figured out what all these dash lights are for, figured out that 1 of them was a warning light for the disc pads.

I now have one flickering that is in the middle bottom, looks like a circle with a broken circle on both the left and right (3 lines each side).

Any clues appreciated

That sounds like the brake pad wear light. The symbol with the "p" and "!" in the circles is your park brake warning light.

this light is also for low brake fluid

By low it obviously means not right to the top.

Brake pad light came on and I checked them and theres at least another 1-2 yrs wear still in them.

Thanks for your reply

those lights work by earthing out the sensor in the disc onto the disc. Make sure you haven't got a wire rubbed through to earth at the brake caliper (ie on the spring or brakeline) That'll make the light come on to
