The main warning light (!) is coming on when I turn left. Only 90 degree turns and to the left. I do not see any drop off in charge voltage (just under 14 volts on the gauge). I suspect belt slippage, but I do not hear any squeal. Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Fergus, also make sure your brake fluid is up...
There would also be a wire somewhere that's swinging and grounding out on left hand turns. Like a sensor wire... Most of the warning lights are "switched to ground" to activate.

Have you checked your oil level?
I not sure but doesn't the warning light also light when you're low on oil?

Are any other lights on? ABS, brake etc?

Fluid doesn't get low on it's own. Monitor carefully.
*edit*
Not necessarily true. If res was not filled properly, I could see as pads wear, the fluid 'gets low'. Be careful if you filled it when you put new pads in! Evacuate some fluid first.
