replace front brake pads
There is not a reset for the break wear indicator light on the Mercedes-Benz GL450. You will need to fix the problem before the light will go off.
Press the brake
The ABS indicator stands for the Automatic Brake System indicator. It can be reset by restarting the entire control display.
Replace brake pads Thank you Captain Obvious. Can we get a real answer now? I replaced my brake pads and sensor is still lit. Trying to avoid disconnecting my battery.
The brake wear indicator is a non-reusable sensor that is installed in the brake pad. If this sensor is activated then the entire sensor must be replaced. Parts are available on-line if you are not close to a MINI dealership. After the worn sensor is replaced, you turn the key to position II without starting the car and wait for the light to reset. The sensor can be replaced without removing the caliper.
The Brake Wear Indicator Light means your brakes are malfunctioning, worn out, or low on fluid and you need to get them fixed. If the indicator is caused be worn pads, then the wear sensor has worn through and must be replaced - it's not repairable. After the problem has been corrected, reset the indicator by turning the ignition key to position #2 (just before engine start position) but do not start the engine and wait for less than 60 seconds. The on-board computer will automatically check the sensor condition and reset the indicator if no fault exists. (Note that starting the car and even driving it may not allow the indicator to reset.)
use a pad wear indicator :)
get a OBD2 (On Board Diagnostics) reader and reset the code.
To reset the low brake pad indicator on 2010 Ford Trans IT simply turn on the ignition and press the foot brake and the accelerator simultaneously. The accelerator and the foot brake should be pressed at the same time.
Just turn the key to on (second) position - where you see all the lights come on the dashboard and wait till the brake wear indicator light go off. If you replaced the tripped brake wear sensor, the light will go off in about 10-15 seconds...
It will either be the brake wear indicator or the abs sensor Check if it goes to the brake pads it's the wear indicator If it goes to the hub it's the abs sensor
