The new brake pads I purchased do not have the brake sensor wire attached. There are just little holes drilled. When I attach a new sensor wire what should hold the wire in?

Also, I tore apart the old sensor wires trying to remove them from the old brake pads. Is there some method to remove them so they can be used again?

Thanks

you need to relpace the sensors,they are only about a dollar each. they hold them selves in my the lip on them. its really easy and if you look closely you will get the idea.

if you want to try and save them, on future attempts, use needle nose pliers to pull the black plastic end of the sensors from the brake pad retainer.

And replace the pads before the sensors turn the light on (or as soon as possible aftwerwards) as waiting wears and ruins the old sensor.
