hi again folks....quick question:
I need to replace the front & rear brake pad wear sensors on my Disco 3 and before I crawl underneath, can anyone tell me if the connectors for the sensor cables are underneath the car or inside the cabin ?
The workshop manuals I have make no reference to the locations.

Must say that the CD/DVD's and Haynes that I have come nowhere as good as RAVE which gave both the location and pinouts of every wiring connector on the models covered.

I have new sensor cables as the originals felt very sloppy when I fitted new pads a couple of weeks ago, I may have damaged the ends that fit into the notch in the pads as they were very hard to remove from the old ones.

sensors are on the front nearside and rear off side , connectors are in the wheel arches

Short the cable out and check the rest of them in the bin.
Once a year tear the brakes down for a look see/lube, if the pads wont make another year, replace them.
