Operation: How to remove the brake pad sensor on a BMW.

In this video, we see how to exclude the brake pad wear sensor, which many consider a nuisance because it starts giving the warning halfway through the pad's consumption. We need to locate the cable that communicates the wear of the pad, which passes right in the middle of the brake caliper. In the fender, we have the connector box, so we need to remove the caliper and disconnect the sensor. We see that of the two pads, one has a seat where the sensor is housed. We then cut the wires, connect them together, and join them with a clamp. We reconnect the connector in its place, leave the sensor where it is so the system won't signal that it's missing, and now the warning light has disappeared.
