The low brake pad warning light came on in my 300SDL yesterday, but i am not sure it is working correctly. It flickers when i first apply the brakes, then goes out while i am still braking. Other times it will not come on until i have come to a complete stop and will stay on while i am stopped, but if i let off the brake and roll forward the light will not come on again when i re-apply the brake. It sometimes flickers lightly when i am driving and not applying the brakes at all. Is this a faulty reading by a sensor or bad light or something wrong with the brake system? TIA, Shannon
