Yeah, the two lights are connected. Basically you've worn down the pad sensor telling you the pads need attention = red brake light, the car on the lift = needs service (brake service). You've performed all the repair yourself. Now the computer nanny needs to be reset.....
Then you'll be good and the nanny will go back to sleep, until next time....
The red brake light did not clear on my 2009 Cooper. The fluid level is correct. The front rotors, pads and sensor was changed. The red light on the dash panel is still lit. The car has 33,0000 miles and the reset service date was successful (and now states 35,000). What am I missing. Is there a sequence of button pushes that will work or am I destined for a trip to the dealership?
