Re: reset brake pad warning lamp?


Carl Henderson
 

There's no reset.

There's one long circuit loop from the lamp circuit in the dash
through all four brake pads then to ground. If there's a break
anywhere, the lamp illuminates.

So--it could be a bad connection on your new front pads, or worn out
rear pads, or a break at the rear pad connectors, or a broken wire
anywhere in the circuit.

I've had trouble with the connectors breaking on my front pads. Right
now I still have the original front pads (60K miles), but the sensors
are jumpered at the front wheels to keep the light off.

I've made up a test plug from an old rear pad. I can plug it in at any
wheel. Just tie the two wires together and you'll simulate an intact
wear sensor.
