Hey Guys and Gals,

I am happy to report my break job went just fine...changed with Balo
rotors and Pagid pads all the way around and "Frauline" is very
happy...:)

The brake light is still on and I can't figure out why .. New Sensors,
new brakes and rotors and the damn thing is still on...any ideas why ?

Cheers

Switch on ignition but don't start the engine and wait. If the sensors are
good and plugged in correctly it will go out and stay out.

*How about "never"? Is "never" good for you?

I was able to clear the lining brake light by reseting the computer
with Peake reset tool ..

This is after I checked and rechecked the sensors twice and could not
anything wrong with the sensors....anyway thought you might like to
know for future reference..

Cheers !
