Brake pad sensor question please.

NickyC · 07-13-2015, 10:02 AM

This question is a for a Z4M please. I've put together a custom front brake kit (aka cheap) for my car, but it won't be able to use the front brake pad sensor. Is it possible to just "tie off" this sensor so the light isn't triggered on my dash? If so, what's the best way of going about this please?

Thanks!

Yes. Zip ties.

You can also completely remove the harness from the wheel well, except it would leave a "brake" light permanently on the dash.

I have it doubled back and zip tied to itself on the caliper because of the RacingBrake caliper.

Fantastic, zip ties are what I'm going to go with. Perfect information and thanks again for your help.

I've gone with the RallyRoad Z06 conversion, I got a really good deal on it and I'm excited to see how it looks.
