Check the sensor wiring first.

You mean the yellow pad wear, not the red "BRAKE" light?

Check the wires. If the sensor wire is iffy, just replace. They're cheap. Trace the wire up wheel arch through the grommet. The insulation gets old and crumbly. I think even that may be cheap to buy and replace.

thanks guys... after further review the wiring in worn and there is dry rot - i'll replace.
