Rear brake pad sensor replacement

passenger rear. The sensors are finicky and gimmicky. Ditch them and check your brakes 1-2 times a year. I recommend cleaning and greasing the caliper pins yearly anyhow.

totally agree, thanks!

My brake light came on and said my pads are worn. That was a surprise because I just did the brakes about 1-2k miles ago. I'm going to inspect them, but I'd like to remove the sensors and **** the light. How is that accomplished?

Clip sensor. Join the two wires (completing circuit to turn off light). Wrap/protect wire and zip tie it up somewhere safe.

I didn't even need to remove the tire to fix it, so easy. Thanks!
