LOL, the BRAKE light is for brake fluid, not brake lights.

(O) -- That's your front brake pad wear warning sensor.

Default there are two .. BRAKE and ( O )... BRAKE means check fluid or stop taking corners @ 60...
other means pads are worn. A dead bulb should just say..hrmm, never had one..can't help ya there.
