What is this light?

My warning light above the seat belt light and next to the brake (!) light came on two days ago and wont go off. I have an 84 and don't have the owners manual. It has a circle with a dotted circle around it. Can someone help me out?
Thanks,
Nate

It is your brake pad wear warning indicator.

Thanks guys. That was my only guess WaA420, due to the symbol and the fact that I already know what all the other warning lights are (eliminating fluid reservoir and parking break). I always thought it would be the same indicator as the fluid reservoir (the one right next to it [Brake(!)]).

Guess it is time to do my front brakes finally... Too bad my retaining pins are mushroomed at the ends and will be impossible to get out I am thinking of just cutting it in the middle and pulling the two halves out, anyone else have any suggestions?

should only be mushroomed on one, pinned on the other end. drive them out with a center punch.
