What to do if the brake warning light comes on on the BMW 1 Series?
Years 2011-2019

Answer

When the red brake warning light is on, it is absolutely not necessary to start the car as it signals a serious problem with the brake system (sometimes, however, it is simply the handbrake still on). The yellow light, on the other hand, signals the wear of the pads and tells us that the time has come to replace them.
