Default reset low brake pad wear light
Can some one tell me how to reset the low brake pad wear sensor on my 1993 LS400. The brake pads are fine but the light on the dash will not go off.

May have to just disconnect the battery for 10-15 minute to reset the ECU on the car.

if you wore through the sensor wire then the light won't go off until you replace the sensor.

^ what he said. if the sensor was worn to the contacts before the pads were replaced, you need a new sensor.

Already covered in this thread but first try the battery disconnect and if that does not work then it is most likely the sensor
