Just replaced my pads yesterday and planned on using the old sensors since they hadn't gone off. However the sensor tip was brittle and I accidentally broke it off when I tried to remove them from the old pads. Since I didn't plan on putting in new sensors I didn't buy any before starting the job. So I just left the sensors plugged in to the electrical system without putting the sensor tip into the pad. Of course now the brake warning lights are on.

Can I eliminate the warning lights by just unplugging the other end of the sensor from the electrical system??
