"Brake lining wear" light

Howdy
I've have a 2002 CLK 320 cab. I just replaced the brakes and rotors and the brake lining wear light is still on. Is there a way to reset the sensors or do I need to replace them?
Thanks
Mike

You need to replace the sensors.

You may have found when you replaced the pads that the cable to the sensors was rubbing on the edge of the brake rotor making contact, which would make the circuit and give the warning on your dash. If this is the case you can just move the wire away slightly and use electrical tape to cover where it rubbed.
