Do you have a manual? My wife's Clubman came with a manual and it says what all of the warning lights mean.

if your not the original owner, maybe you have a LED bulb... they dont draw enough and give the bulb out warning

I'm guessing the top half on your fog light. Access panel is a round disc inside the wheel well

I hear that. -32 today in Calgary. I know how annoying that little light is as it mocks you when it lights up.
