Brakes problem
2001 Cadillac Catera 6 cyl All Wheel Drive Automatic 12000 miles
Were do the wire to the front disc brake go for the brake sensor. one end plugs into the wiring, but the other end has an L shape with a little metal piece. Do the L shape piece plug into the pads or the caliber. I'm lost!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! please note place in detail either the pad or the caliber...THX guys!!!!!!

It goes into the pad. Where the spring is in the center, the pin pushes through from the lining side. Therefore the plastic sensor is between the metal pad backing, and the rotor.
