Wait so I need to clarify what you did. You just cut the wires and then you connected the two ends or you just left them cut and tied them so they wouldn't be hanging?
I also agree with your old school method. I also change wheels around winter, but even if you don't change wheels, you can take a flashlight and see thickness of the pads through the spokes of the wheels.
I was planning on my next brake job to replace the sensors with new ones, but not install on the pad, but rather just connect them up and zip tie them. This way I can reset the computer.
