W163 2001 ML430, Brake pad & Parking brake warning
Hello everybody, i am not new here i have not posted at all.
A little intro. I have two amazing mercs a W202 C200 with 360 000 km on the clock that i took over from my mother we have had the car since new. A recently a W163 ML 430. Sitting at 216 000 km.
The problem i am having right now is after going on holiday with the ML on very dusty roads and desert roads and a lot of corrugations the brake pad warning light and parking brake warning light (with very annoying beeps) light up randomly and i cannot get it to stop so i am now to the forum.
The light will flash randomly when
Accelerating from 0 to 40 km/h, or on the highway when i need to overtake
Braking ( flash intermittently no sound)
Dead stop( stay on until i pull away then proceed to beep)
Please help me

the little sensors in the brake hub unit are probably old or have moved. i had the same symptoms when i had mine first replaced and they just needed to reseat them properly in he allocated space. its just a contact issue, easy fix
