OK, folks, I have been scouring this forum for the last few days. I have several issues I plan to tackle but there are two most pressing to me at the moment.

I have an indicator on that I now find out isn't a "check engine" light but is actually a low brake fluid level indicator. It looks similar to the "check pads" indicator but differs with solid parenthesis and an exclamation point in the center. I happened to note in the manual I purchased that this is for Canadian models, which must be Euro imports with minor changes. This indicator seems to replace the "Break" indicator on normal American models.

Anyway, this indicator is on even though I have sufficient fluid in the reservoir. Not totally full, but well above the min mark. I do plan to purchase some fresh fluid today and top it off. My question is, is it normal for the indicator to come on that soon or is there a way to adjust/diagnose the switch?

Next, as I have been thinking this was this car's version of check engine, I could not locate the engine fault codes or the diagnostic socket location in the CD manual I purchased, which has the 107 Owners, Maintenance, Engine, Electrical and body manuals. I still wish to check for faults as I read yesterday that not all of them will trigger the "check engine". Can someone tell me where it is located in these manuals? The electrical manual has schematics that reference pages I can not find.
