Brake Sensor Wires?
 
Does anyone know if the brake sensor wires, not the sensors but the wire to the caliper, can be replaced?

When I replaced the lower control arm bushings, both sides broke off at the caliper while I was working. In both instances, I took the precaution of tie-wrapping the caliper to the sway bar and the tie wrap broke!:mad:

I haven't traced the wires down to see where the other ends connect.

my right side one is broken off.. the cable so its not sending signal but i was told not to worry about it and just tape the wire out of the way.. now this is for the brake pad wear sensor correct?

Yes, the brake pad wear sensors. I know that it won't hurt anything to secure them out of the way but wanted to look into what/if replacement can be done. If nothing else, I can splice and RTV.

the sensors are real cheap....only a couple bucks....why not replace them....if you are talking the harness part the sensor plugs into that should be replacible too.

The wire harness can be replaced. Probably a Dealer item only. Call Phil at Fastlane to see if he can get one for you. Or you can splice a new wire into the harness.
