BRAKE PAD SENSORS
« on: 22 May 2012, 17:15:19 »

Hi all, MOT time again so sorting out a few bits.  I had the brake pad warning up so decided to cut & join the wires.  Did both sides but still have the warning coming up. Any ideas? do i need to re-set anything? Thanks, Dan

Yes, it's still an open circuit somewhere. Try shorting out at the plug in the wheel arch & go from there.  ;)

Unplug the black connector, top left in pic, discard the part with the wire that leads to brakepads. Inside the other part of connector you`ll see two "holes" bridge them with a "U" shaped paperclip and tape over to make secure
