Default How turn off brake wear sensor warning on instrument cluster?

I bought some new pads but they don't have sensors. I think I'd rather turn it off rather than cut sensor wire off old pads and splice.

Default I believe that all B6 S4 clusters are only used in cars with pad wear sensors.

Hence, no way to tell the cluster to ignore the lack of sensor using a scan tool. You'll need to short the sensor wiring like this:<ul><li><a href="https://forums.audiworld.com/s4b6/msgs/441062.phtml">https://forums.audiworld.com/s4b6/msgs/441062.phtml</a</li></ul>

Default Its easier to cut the plugs off the old set of pads and crimp the wires together...

plug it into the car and zip-tie it out of the way.
