[V8] Everythings flashing (!) still!

I'm only familiar with North America/USDOT cars and I'm not sure this would
be different because of that (I don't think it would be) but in those, the
bomb pressure warning is not displayed in the info center area.  An
indication of low brake assist pressure is indicated by the rectangular
BRAKE light being displayed, usually only a flash or a long flash when
brakes are initially applied.

The symbol you refer to is displayed by the brake pad wear sensors (if not
other reasons) when there's an issue with those, even sometimes when the
brake pads actually nearly done.  ;-)

The flashing outside temp LED means the CC system detected an error
condition.  The access method and codes are out there on the net somewhere.
So far, I've always ignored it as it is infrequent and usually only when
there have been temp extremes and I have not been able to detect any issue
with what I'm asking of the CC system at the time.
