Resetting Tripped Brake Sensor

For some odd reason my brake sensors tripped when i was driving and i could not reset it. Funny thing is i don't even have it connected to my brake pads because i couldnt be bothered changing them all the time so they were not worn out.

Steps:
1. Remove the wheel and brake sensors from the housing.
2. find two of these, tie the wire end together and plug them into the sensor connector. Doesnt matter which orientation because all you trying to do is shorting the circuit. the computer measures the ohms between different sensor so it would reset.



3. after you've plugged it in go ahead and clear the service light and turn off the car and plug your old one back in and you are good to go!

They're PC motherboard pin sockets and fit straight into the brake sensors
