Brake pad warning

[Gin+]

Does anyone happen to know which pin on the cluster is the sensor on the brake pads? I must have a break in the harness somewhere as I've looped the pad ends and I'm still having the error pop up and it drives me nuts. Appreciate it.

Pin 32 on the green connector maybe? I found this on this page: BOOM!

Did you loop the pad ends before or after the connector? Mine had a corroded connector, bit of contact cleaner and electrical grease fixed it.

Had this happen on my B5 and rather than buy a new abs sensor I just grounded the sensor wire at the cluster with a drilled out Scotchloc.

Before the connector but the contacts looked really clean. Car has over 275k so it’s tough to get too picky over this kinda stuff.
