i think it comes on when the brake pads are worn down too much, or when they are too hot. any other lights on, such as ABS?

I found them on IPDusa.com for 300-350$ if you give them your old one. Here's the link: http://www.ipdusa.com/Volvo-S70V70-1...-128-361-2216/

Do a search on this site for Victor Rocha. He will rebuild yours for much less $$$.

I send mine in to BBA-Reman. Costs around $65- $100 through them, and they guarantee it for life.
