quick question: when pads are changed to aftermarket ones that do not incorporate the pad sensor, does that trigger a CEL? Just wondering because I put on EBC pads and left the sensor disconnected and now have a CEL, but wondering if it’s a coincidence?
Replacing brake pads and not reinstalling the brake pad wear sensor will not trigger a CEL. I recently changed my front rotors and pads and tucked away the sensor and I get no CEL. Dan
And yes, do a fault code reading to determine what the anomaly is. Sent from my SM-G955U using Tapatalk
