this is why brakes should not be done by independent shops, not because they dont know how to do brakes, but because the vehicle always ends up back at the dealer with the brake wear light on.Anyway, when you say repaired a sensor, something about that doesnt sound right. you are supposed to replace the wear sensors anytime you replace the pads, wether the brake wear light was on or not. you dont ever reuse them.
