If fitted, the light will come on the dashboard, telling you the pads are thin, other than that the thickness of the discs and pads should be checked to det

d ermine if they are within wear specifications

on most modern vechicules today you have a warning system on the brake pads that will screech while your foot is off the brake pedal and stop screeching when your foot is on the pedal.another way is depressing the brake pedal while in park and checking the pedal travel,if it is over half the way or more i would change the pads and check the rotors for runout and damage.
