Low pads should flash a symbol like this on the cluster "(O)" on the later model cars.
Yes, try unplugging the abs control module next to your washer resevoir and try starting.

Thumbs up brake lite flashing

To my understanding the lite flashing means time to change the pads..

Unhappy Sideways 8 Flashinging

Hello Everyone,
I really need some help, I have a 1999 Audi A6. After driving my car from a trip about an hour or some 45 miles, my dash panel began to beep and there appeared to be a "sideways 8", my pixels are a little messed up so i couldnt see really well. But since I dont have my manuel, I do not know what this symbol is. Can anyone help me??
