05 C230K Brake Pad Sensor Question.
I changed the brake pads and the front rotors in my car today. the shop we got the parts from told me that there will be a sensor in the front and back. well i started on the right rear brake, and noticed the pad had the notch for the sensor but my friend and i couldn't find the sensor. so im asking, is there a sensor in the rear of the car?
i found the sensor easily on the front brakes, but rear showed no sign of a sensor ever being there/connected.

I'm not sure how specific this is. They changed the number of and location of the sensors so many times that it probably varies by model year. If you're not getting a brake wear warning you don't have to worry about replacing the other sensors. If they were damaged or disconnected you would be getting a warning.
