Replace sensor and reset through idrive menu and it works fine.
as seen here
Sorry, i should have been clearer. The wear sensor is untouched. It did not come in contact w the rotor at all. I replaced the pads and rotors w the onboard info still showing 800 miles and the pads still had a teeny bit left - like one or two mm.
I will give the scan tool reset a shot over at a buddy's. Then try a new sensor.
Thanks!
