Did you also replace the sensor that fits in the brake pad?

@SilverCloud9 It appears that you held the button too long and entered the secret menu vs service reset menu.

If they replaced the sensor then it will reset itself after a few miles. If it didn't reset either the sensor is bad or it was not replaced

@SilverCloud9 Did you get a brake wear notification or a brake service interval notification?

The service reset menu does not clear control messages. You probably have a faulty brake wear sensor or connection.
