My Ride: 528I
Angry Yellow Brake Pedal Light

Hello there,
My 08 528i is showing a yellow brake pedal light. After I start it, it shows a yellow brake light and the circle with the (!) point in it.
Any clue what this is and how to fix it? I have already changed the brake pedal sensor.


Any help is greatly appreciated.

If it's just the "!" symbol, that means that a message is awaiting you in Status. Press the Check button on your turn signal stalk for the message to appear on the display screen. Otherwise, the yellow BRAKE light indicates that your parking brake is on. If it is off, then the contact that turns your light off is probably faulty.

The first thing to do in rectifying the problem is to detect the underlying factors that caused the light to come on in the first place

This could mean your car is on hand brake or park brake Try to press the park brake If this does not solve it then it means it's code issue
