M3 Evo 'Brake pads low' light....wont go away
Discussion
Hi,
I had the 'brake pads low' light come on on my M3 Evo, so i checked the pads...fronts were low, back are fine. I got a replacement set and did the job. Now even though i have new pads in the front, the light will not go out. I have tried disconnecting the little green lead that goes to the pads but it still stays on? Is there reset needed? Or can i get the light to go out by earthing it etc? I dont want to resort to bits of black tape on my dash!!!
Cheers, Nick

Sensor is sacrifical, once the light comes on it means that its worn thru the sensor - replacement required. I found that I took a while to go off, you can help it along with a sequence on the ignition switch (google) - i think you just leave it on the about to turn it over setting for a minute or two.
