Tell me about it... haha [8D]

So when I take my front wheel off, what exactly am I looking for to tell if I have sensors or not? I am almost guessing that I don't have sensors becuase my brakes are completely shitty and no light has come on yet saying anything.

Well there should be a wire in the pad. Either that or you have pads w/o wires and thats why you dont have the warning wear light. Read avants post again.

Ok cool, I guess I will just get the cheaper ones without the sensors. Thanks all!

The wires are on the inside pads. If the origonal pads had
wires, cut them near the pads and tie them electrically together.

That way the electrical loop is closed and the light won't go off, I see. I hope I just don't even have them so I don't have to go through that trouble! lol Thanks.
