[s-cars] overriding brake pad sensors

[jpb3]

I found that using a decent gauge wire and just jumping the two
terminals on the "car side" connector at the wheel is the best way to
get rid of the light.  I just taped off the connector real well after
I jumped the terminals and zip tied it to the strut.  Before this I
was trying to use the male end or wheel side connector and tying the
two tiny wires together on that end.  Didn't work too well.
