No warning light. Thankfully changing b/f rotors got damaged.

I had 3 or 4 track days, but take it pretty easy on the street.

Default Q on the sensors - can anyone answer?

Is the problem that the pads do not have wiring to them?
Or they have wiring to them but it does not work?

Or is there just no sensor system.

And are there pads that do have sensors that work one can buy?

Sorry if this seems stupid of a questioning.

Default the diagram in the bentley manual clearly shows wiring to the front pads.

in fact, in the instructions for replacing the pads, the first step is to disconnect it.
