I pushed on it and pressed it in toward the hub. tried to make sure it was seated all the way in the pad. I was hoping maybe I'd bend the arm a little bit and figured I'd either make it better or worse - but as long as something changed with the noise, I would know it wasn't the brake pads, and wouldn't need to fuss with taking the pads off and putting more anti squeal on the backing plate.
so now I know it's the sensor, and whatever I did luckily made the noise go away.
