Warning light on dash board?

[love2learn]

I've got a problem with a warning light on the dash board of my Mini One. It came on when driving normally around town. It looks like this... (!) and it's luminated in red. I checked the manual to find out what it was for, and the manual said it's to do with the run flat tires. However that only problem is, It doesn't have run flat tires on it. Anyone know what's causing this?

Dont worry its nothing. Sometimes the sensor thinks that the tyres are flat if theyre runflat or not.
Just press the button next to the handbrake for a while and the light will go yellow then will go off. Make sure your tyres arent flat first though.

Check all four tyre pressures to make sure you've not got a puncture.

Yellow (!) is usually a false alarm, red (!) is usually right and there is a low pressure somewhere.

I did exactly that, and the lights gone. Thanks very much mate.

Yeah, I replaced a tire recently.. it was inflated at a kwik fit garage whilst detached from the car. I forgot to check it's preasure when it was back on the car. Problem solved. Thanks
