I switched over to a brake setup that I made using Wilwood 6 piston calipers and 2 piece rotor/hat set up. I need to turn off the pads sensor light on the dash. Is there a way to deactivate the light sensor message? Fuse, relay, short the wires to ground?

Take the sensor from your old pads, cut the wires so it is real short, splice together, wrap in electrical tape and then plug the sensor back in. The other way will be to pull the fuse, i have no idea which one it is though

Stick a small piece of solid copper wire in the plug to loop the circuit.

Spliced the wires, did not work light still on. Where is the fuse/relay located?

This..need to do both sides on the front. Sometimes the line breaks further up where it goes into the grommet too. If this happens you can ground a pin behind the cluster to disable the light for good. No fuse that I know of.

just ground the sensors wire at the cluster and you're done forever.
