Pads Worn Warning Light

by newcalibrafan » Tue Jul 22, 2008 12:46 pm

The Pads Worn Warning Light started to come on after approx 5min journey and stays on but if i restart the engine, the light goes off permantly until the next journey.

I suspect its the sensor but not sure why it goes off when the engine is restarted.

Not sure if its the engine management or pad sensor. Any ideas?

Cut the sensor off, join the wires together and tape up out of the way, no pad sensor light on the dash.......... job done.
