Light on dash will not go out.round with broken orange lines

either the brake pads are worn down and its the warning light ,or its the ABS l throwing up the brake pad sensor light but with this the brakes seem to judder when stopping at a higher speed ,have this fault to sort out on my XJ6 sovereign jaguar but after living in spain 28yrs its a manana (tomorrow) job too hot now at this time of year

Not sure. May be able to google for troubleshooting tip. This could be telling you that brake pads/ shoes need to be replaced. I am not familiar with Mercedes. Good luck..

A ROUND YELLOW CIRCLE LIGHT WITH LINES ON EACH SIDE MEANS BRAKE PROBLEMS FRONT BRAKES OR REAR BRAKES HAS A FAULT. NOW IF CIRCLE HAS LINES INSIDE YOUR POWER STEERING FLUID LOW NEED CHECKING.THE WARNING LIGHT WILL TURN OFF WHEN PROBLEM FIX.

hi this is the warning light for brake pad wear sensors have your brakes checked for wear or broken sensor wires

orange circle with dashed lines each side indicates worn brake pads, circle with cross through indicates bulb failure. third orange light indicates brake light bulb faiure

Brake pads require checking
This warns you early so you don,t ruin discs

Brake pads
●
Have the brake pads checked
immediately.
For your own safety: use only
brake pads that BMW has
released for your particular vehicle
model. BMW cannot evaluate nonapproved
brake pads to determine if
they are suitable for use, and therefore
cannot ensure the operating safety of
the vehicle if they are installed.<

A circle with lines around it - depends where it is -
If its a top left light, then it should be a circle with an exclamation mark in the middle, and two lines running part way round the outside (1 to 5pm and 7 - 11pm). Thats the handbrake and brake fluid light which comes on for about 3 seconds when you start the engine ... if it comes on at any other time - seek help.
If its top centre, and has ABS in the middle, then its the anti lock braking light. Similar to above, lights up for a few seconds at start.

Muffler with lines coming off it - are they pointing outwards from the circle, (with a thermometer in the middle = transmission oil temperature guage), or are they on the left and all parallel (which would be main beam indicator, which lights up blue when on)

It sounds like a brake pad warning light. Sometimes can be linked in with the brake fluid light.
Check the brake fluid level first. If its ok then check the front brake pads. If the pads are worn down the fluid level will have dropped. Also if the fluid level is low the sensor will bring on the light.

On mine i had a circle with some lines around it and it was a brake pad indicator, meaning that the car has determined that you need to replace your brake pads. I have included a link to a picture. your dash may not look like this, but the orange light on the top left is the brake pad indicator light. Hope this helps!
