Brake Wear Sensor Bypass at Neil Murley blog

Brake Wear Sensor Bypass. It's possible your sensor wire insulation is worn off and grounding. If you indeed had that much pad left, either the sensor was incorrectly installed and was worn through, your inner pads are wearing. When circuit is completed to ground, the warning is activated. You can easily bypass the sensor and just check for wear the old way. The brake wear sensor is a single wire. I did this on my r56 and since the f. When the pad wears down, it makes contact with the disc completing the circuit. So long at the brake pad sensor. Either leave the sensors intact, but removed from the pads & tie them out of the way, or for a neater fix, cut them near the junction, strip & splice the ends, and cover with tape. As your brake pads wear down the sensor plastic housing begins to make contact with the rotor and it too begins to wear away along with the brake. The original fault may lie elsewhere than the actual pads or sensors and might still be faulting, they usually don't trigger so easily.
