Finally got around to checking at least some of the wiring for the brake pad warning light. I used a multimeter to first check that the brake pads themselves were OK.

With that done, I managed to trace the route of the wiring loom towards the front of the car. Just after it disappears behind the wheel arch insert (between two plastic securing nuts), there is another four pin connector. I separated this and then checked all four pins against the three pins in the plug to the brake pad. After a bit of trial and error, I was able to confirm that up to that point everything was fine.

What I did discover, which I suspect to be my problem (and probably yours) is that on the left side, I had to insert the multimeter lead all the way in to the three pin plug for it to register, which would imply corrosion near the front. I'll have a look in the daylight, but trying to figure out what I can use to clean them out, considering their size.

I'll also see if I can find a suitable picture of where the four pin plug is and which pins to check.
