[s-cars] overriding brake pad sensors

[Mike Platt]

I did in fact cut the wrong wires.....doh! Anyway they are now repaired and the correct wires were found. I cut them in the engine bay area, closed the circuit, and now I am back in action. Thanks for pointing out my screwups guys!

Mike,

sounds to me like you cut the speed sensor wires instead of the pad sensor wires.
I recommend you get out your trusty soldering iron and reconnect the wires.
The speed sensors are at each wheel and measure the speed of each wheel
in order to sense when some are locked up and others are turning.

HTH
Chris

PS other more informed listers will not point out why I'm wrong!  :-)
