The circle with the exclamation mark within should be red and indicates a brake circuit failure (from a 760 user manual). It really indicates that the brake fluid level is low rather than a brake circuit failure. (The bulb failure light is orange and displays a bulb with a 'X' on it.)

Thanks for your advice. I checked the back brake lights and both were working but than I noticed that the third window brake light was out. Replaced its bulb so it works and........warning light is now off! Thanks
