I installed new brake pads all around to get rid of the pesky brake dust on my rims.

The new pads don't have the spot for sensors. How do I bypass them? When they are just unplugged you get the warning.

Should I just put the two wire together or does it need to be a certain resitance?

Does anyone know?

Thanks.

These are custom compound pads I had made in Germany to my specs. All my cars have them. No sensors needed. I'm beyond that.

I don't know what the sensors look like but can you plug them in and then tie-wrap them out of the way somewhere?
