[V8] "Brake Pad Light" & "Cat Light"

I would take a look underneath and see if the wiring to the cat temp sensor is
OK. Water may have gotten in causing a short. It screws into one cat (the one
towards the right, I think) and looks like a skinny O2 sensor.  Its been a while
since I've been under there.
