930 Brake Pad Sensor

1987 brake pad sensor will not extinguish
4 new sensor harnesses plugged in but not attached to pads
each sensor measured 0.7 ohms before installation
body harness measured no resistance before sensor harnesses installed
brake lights work
Will brake light switches effect the problem?
I have also disconnected the battery overnight
brake fluid reser4voir full
Any help is appreciated
Thank you

Thank you,
Chris

I am too. I'm checking continuity for the whole circuit and will report what I find.

I found my problem. A pad sensor wire had pulled out of the connector. Probably over stretched when I was doing suspension work. I replaced the sensor and thw warning light goes out.

Two notes:

1. If you pull out the warning light assembles and unplug the connector, you can check overall continuity between pins 1 and 2 on the connector. This allows to check the wiring harness as well as the sensors at once.

2. The two brake warning lights are on with the ignition and go off with the engine running. I guess this is to test the bulbs.
