[s-cars] Brake Sensor Light

Thanks for the info everyone! I'll check out the pads and ensure a
better connection.

I've had the same issue when I installed Mintex Redbox front pads,
though 
it's sporadic.  Sometimes it will come on everytime I hit a bump (and
stay on 
until you cycle the ignition on and off), and then there are times that
it 
will go away for weeks.  I attribute it to the contacts on the harness
from 
the Mintex pads being looser than they should be and it's not providing
a 
good circuit.  I've lived with it for now since mine is more
intermittent, 
but at some point I may add some contact enhancer or try to tweak the 
contacts a bit to provide a better connection.
