Mintex red pads.. received with one sensor wire detached from the pad
<center><img src="http://pictureposter.audiworld.com/64293/img_2048.jpg"></center><p>Does this look like it wouldn't be too hard to solder back together, or should i just bypass it all together and just cut off the plug and loop the wires. Will i have any strange results if i loop one side but not the other? (don't see why i would but i'd like reassurance)
I got the pads from AWE but i do not feel like going through the trouble of getting a whole new set of pads when the price difference between the sensor/non-sensor pads was only $1..

Re: Mintex red pads.. received with one sensor wire detached from the pad
if your old pad still has the sensor on it... Rip the old sensor out and reuse it. Just wrap it up, and zip tie it aside. Otherwise, just splice the wires together, zip tie and tuck it aside.
If you do/check your brakes once a year... it would be easier to bypass it once and for all.

SOLDER melts at what temperature now?
what temp do you think your IRON rotors reach under braking???
Ever try touching a hot rotor?
Ever try touching a hot soldering iron?
which do you think is hotter?

i'll pass on those touch tests.. but good point
studying Welding engineering you'd think i would've thought about this, heh..
i think i'll be doing a little snipping and crimping with my old harness.
