    Brake pad wear sensor

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    I've seen a fix where people splice a wire on a green jumper internally but don't think I want to be modifying in there. What would be an easy fix to eliminate the wear light? Should I splice and join the wires down near the sensor in the wheel well? Curious to know what you guys have done, my new pads do not account for sensors. Thanks in advance!

    Do you have the plugs from the old sensors? Use them and solder or crimp the wires.

    I'd have to check, you wouldn't happen to have a pair lying around would you?

    I don't sorry. Any b6/b7 brake pad plug will work though.
