Is the brake system low on fluid? If it is, there may be a wheel cylinder leaking.
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.
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.
An abs sensor, can get metal shavings stuck to it, can brake clean, but normally if you have a fault it needs to be replaced.
check fuses & brake lights switch located on brake pedal
anti lock brake system light might mean a bad brake sensor must be replaced
You have stumped the wizzard as I find no such animal.
Replace the brake sensor then the message will go away. When you saw the message the sensor is already bad so it need to be replaced along with the brake pads. You don't need to replace front and rear sensors at the same time. Any of them has the pads wearing too much (usually in the rear because Mercedes cars drive by the rear), that where the sensor need to be replaced. There is no electronic reset for brake pad wear message.

If the top won't close with the key turned to "on" or with car running and the parking brake engaged make sure the parking brake light is on. If it isn't your parking brake sensor is bad and you need to go to a shop to have it replaced. In the mean time try releasing and reengaging the parking brake a couple of times to see if you can get the sensor to trigger and the brake light to come on. If that works don't put the top down again until you get the sensor replaced. Or it might just need a new fuse.
if you don't have the key or don't have access to it, you have to take the battery out and put it back in and it resets most lights, or really just take the cables off the battery and put them back on
The brake pad wear sensor is on the brake pads. On my 318ti, the sensor is on the left side, on the inboard pad.
your brake fluid is low ur pads need to be replaced or ur sensor is bad
