Brake pad warning plug/sensor brokey :(

(1/1)

keano:
Hi guys.

I managed to break the plug that connects to the wear sensor on my brakes at the weekend.  :evilgrin:

The plastic clip has broken, thus throwing the 'Check Brake Pads' warning on the dash.  :fighting: :fighting: :fighting:

Is this part readily available? Or is it possible to just code the swine out using VagCom?

Thanks budsters,  :jumpmove:

Yes you can uncode it in the instrument module. I had to do the same thing.

keano:
Thanks Nasir  :happy2:

Where abouts are you from?

Nasir:
I'm from Batley (near Leeds). Nice car BTW :happy2:

Brake pad wiring. When my coilovers where being fitted when I realised the driveshaft the wire got pulled quiet harshly. Now the dash keeps saying check brake pads. This may mean the wiring loom is damaged. Can anyone source a part number or a price ?

I have read it can be coded out. However, does this mean It wont detect any faults later or is this just a temporary reset.
