The pad wear sensor has to be replaced. Once the sensor is tripped, the sensor either has to be replaced, or soldered and loop closed to turn the sensor "off." Check a recent thread on brake pad replacement to see what I'm talking about.

Along this thread- I just replaced my brake pads and sensors but am still getting the brake warning and little red exclamation mark flashing. I have reset the maintainence required warning, but the brake warning is still flashing. Any suggestions on how to reset it?
