Brake wear indicator troubleshooting
Vehicle: 2002 Golf, 175k miles. The brake wear indicator is coming on, but the pads are not worn. Checked by dealer and measured by me on all four wheels. Pulled drivers front wheel, disconnected wire from pad, checked for continuity and is good. Is there another cause for the indicator to light and sound other than failure in the wiring? Is there a way of testing the continuity from the connection to the cluster? I know I can turn it off with a VAG COM, but before choosing that option, I'd like to determine the cause.
