I put new pads on that do not have sensors. Can the sensor wires be shorted together to get the warning light to go off. if not what is the best way to get it to go off?

The best way to get Around the censor shut off, is to do the job correctly, there is no way around the brake pads sensors most of the time you cannot buy the brake pads with the sensors, you will have to go to the dealer and order in the sensors, because they are not available anywhere else. next time don't try to be too smart.
