S40 T4 Sport 81,000 miles 2001.

Have just changed the front to rear brake pipes and front passenger brake pipe.(MOT time) Bleed brakes & system ok and have an excellent pedal. Road tested and brakes good just as before any work done
Problem is i now have the "Brake circuit" red warning light staying on the dash display all the time (Handbook position #16). Have checked the brake fluid level and its topped up sitting steady at "max level"
Did a brake bulb check (lights high level light) just in case and all ok plus dash light#8 working correctly, self check goes off as does ABS light dash bulb#10.
The fact ABS light goes off leaving only brake warning on means EBD working fine
What to check next.
Does the brake pedal switch have a set position which has been disturbed from pumping the pedal.??

Will I get any codes if read??
