RustyItalian 11 Report post Posted January 1, 2010 My dash is telling me to check brake linings and the red exclamation light is on all the time. Front pads are good but the pad sensor is open circuit. The rear pads are low and the pad sensor is closed circuit. Tried the manual and it didn't show if the sensors should be open circuit or closed circuit? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JaseNZ 53 Report post Posted January 1, 2010 Should be a closed circuit, When the brake pads wear down they take the end off the sensor creating an open circuit triggering the warning light. Correct me if i am wrong people. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RustyItalian 11 Report post Posted January 1, 2010 Makes sense. Seems they replaced the front pads but not the sensor. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
