brake wear sensor
Has anyone who changed out their front pads had any issues with the wear sensor? Specifically does it trigger any error messages by the all knowing computer? I'm changing the front pads to xp8's for a hpde.
Thanks

Just make sure you do not damage the sensor tip as that would trigger it.

I decided to zip tie the sensor to the side as I changed the brake pads too often.
