Where does it plug in to the pads?

Old one has been snapped off and left dangling so i carnt see where it came from

Cheers

it clips into that small hole in the top of the pad - I can't remember off hand whether its the front or back one tho - sorry mate..

[ClarCE]

just checked, back one..

If its been snapped off its stud you will need a new sensor.

Ive got a new sensor  .....and bet you carnt guess who messed with the pads last  

Tho as old sensor was snapped off and even with new sensor plugged in and left dangling for now.....it must be 'make the circuit' for the mid to complain about the pads.....coz mine isnt complaining

[ians]

TBH I thought the circuit had to be made in order for it NOT to complain.  That's certainly what I recall when I was last messing with them.

I also seem to remember this was one of those jobs where Haynes says something like 'unclip the sensor..'  nigh on impossible on old pads I found.

Ah I see what you mean - its plugged into the electrical connector (thought you meant the pad for some reason) - that should make the circuit and turn the warning off I believe.

Yes, the inner pad behind the disc, sensor plugs in facing away from you at the top middle of the new pad if I remember correctly..

Yep clips into the inner pad.  <2001 have one each side, later have just one passenger side.

Yes.

I could be wrong then, oops - I thought you meant right hand side of pad (rhs)..
