I would strongly recommend getting the fault code read out, it will save 
you time, but bear in mind that a fault code for insufficient pressure 
could be correct, or it could be the pressure switch which is faulty. 
The chances are that the brake fluid is very old, so everything will 
need a good clean out/bleed through.
