Can the BMW x5 brake warning lights light up without brake failure?

Asked by Russel Raten on Friday, May 19 2017 for a 2012 BMW X5 L6-3.0L Turbo Diesel

Got car back from service (should've used Fiix instead :( ) checked & replaced all brakes. Orange “BRAKE” warning light on dashboard still on (together with ABS & cruise control). They claim BRAKE lits up because ABS is broken. But I find this odd (there is a separate ABS warning light)
