Narrative:

On takeoff at 70 KTS; got a master caution light and ding with the wheel page on the lower ECAM showing momentarily. I initiated an abort at 75 KTS and the automatic brakes stopped the aircraft. As previously briefed; the first officer informed the tower we were aborting on runway 19L; and the tower told an aircraft on final to go around. Also as briefed; the first officer told the flight attendants and passenger to remain seated as we were coming to a stop. We taxied clear of the runway. The master caution was due to a brake temperature indicator faulting (previous history). We informed both the passenger and flight attendants of the situation. After talking with dispatch and maintenance control; we deferred the brake temperature system inoperative; waited the appropriate cooling time; and took off again with no further complications.
