Modern looking key, help please

Hello all,

I thought I saw a post here years ago showing how to update the look of the ignition key and fit it to one of the flick type key fobs.

I have searched but can't seem to find it again, can someone point me in the right direction please.

Cheers

Brake light - Not 220 ohm resistor

Hello all,

Brake pad wear light is still on, I have had the dials off and looked at the connections, they all look fine. Apart from buying new sensors and swapping them out is there any way to find out if it a dodgy sensor?
