Rear Brake Pad Sensor Reset

[evodude]

Hello all,

I had the wear sensor warning on the dash, checked it on my Autophix OBD tool and it said rear pads. Pulled the pads and sure enough they were pretty low and the sensor itself (the part that touches the passenger side pad) was chipped/worn down pretty good. I replaced the pads and the sensor wire yesterday, but alas the warning light is still on inside the car. Scanned it again and the error code 480A12 is still there; which says "brake pad wear sensor, rear axle, replace brake pads".
I disengaged the 'workshop' mode on the OBD tool, verified that. Is there something else I need to do to get that darn warning light (and display on the center screen) off? The front pads look good, but I haven't pulled the left front wheel off to look at that sensor yet - I'd think if that one was triggered the Autophix would tell me to replace the fronts.

Thoughts?
Thanks!

Just reset the brake pad service indicator as you would an oil change indicator.

Thanks. Did that. Didn’t work. Any other suggestions?

evodude, try and reset the your brake CBS w/o the e-brake engaged....

Could also be a faulty new sensor. Did you replace with OEM?
