    The light should reset automatically after the replacement parts, the faulty wiring could be the problem.

    Thanks

    Thanks Alan, but surely it’s not your responsibility to fix or diagnose. 
    Did the car go to the garage with the warning light illuminated? 
    Kind regards,

    Gareth.

    A new brake pad wear sensor cable should always be fitted

    when replacing the pads, if not, it could cause a bad connection

    where the end of the cable is connected to the brake pad, I have

    come across this problem in the past, worth a check.
