Can anybody help with this one. Just had to change the brake pads on the better half's 2003 Cooper S. I've fitted genuine BMW pads and replaced the wear sensors for pukka BMW parts, but the wear indicator light on the dashboard is still on. Does any one have any idea's what could be stopping the light from going out, or do i need to go to BMW to get 'my lights put out' properly by them?
Any thoughts would be gratefully received. Thanks. Simon.

smile Brilliant!!! It works, the light is out. A thousand thank you’s my friend.
That was far less hassle than the solution offered by my enterprising BMW dealer. It’s good to see a TVR fan bring a touch of common sense to the world of BMW and Mini. bow
Thank you again. Simon
