You can do a quick search her on the board as to how to reset brake sensor warning on your own...you did replace the brake sensors when you replaced brakes right?

Didn't order any parts yet, but will order the sensors too, and rotors if it is recommended to purchase for a brake install.
Thanks.

if you are refering to me.. Yes i've tried going through the reset menu on the cluster and yes i have replaced the brake sensor( 3 of them, 2 aftermarket and 1 oem) and i still have oem plugged in. I also check the connectors on the harness and it does have a current but brake light wont reset and miles still at -40miles

Is your warranty over or you still have time? If you still have it schedule an appointment and complain that your brakes are squealing. They should replace them under warranty.

jlE90, I just got to thinking about this as I was writing up a post the other day. Maybe the problem is that your front brakes are in need of replacement as well as the rear, and the pad wear indicator is lit because the front pad sensor worn too. Just a thought...
