Front brake pad wear indicator I think. I'd be surprised if it's actually reading right on a 9 year old car, but stranger things have occured!

Even stranger considering I changed pads last weekend!!!!!
I must have reconnected the sensor wire incorrectly?

Check that the pad wear sensor is in it's clip and not rubbing against the disc (which wears through the insulator and shorts out). My did that, and the light flickered for a while...
