I need a little advice/help. I am in the middle of a DIY rear brake pad replacement (first time doing any pad replacement) & got the job done on the left rear. Everything seems to have gone smooth. I am now doing the right rear but have run into a small snag. I can not figure out how to open the brake pad sensor control box to unplug the sensor. Can anyone give me any tips on how to get the control box open so I can unplug the sensor? Thanks

LOL! Sorry to laugh at your troubles, but it really is the most simple of tasks. The box is hinged on one side, and has some tabs on the other side that hook on and keep it closed. Use a screwdriver or other similar tool to release the tabs.

Thanks for that. I finished the job earlier today & realized how easy it was. I was working in poor lighting in the garage last night but once I got a better look at things it was easy peasy. My first brake job or for that matter, any mechanical job so I'm feeling good & saved some $'s!
