Check brake lining light (archive)

Check brake light just came on and I want to switch to the Mintex brake pads, I normally change my own brakes by taking the correct size socket and back out the pad assembly and remove the pads and use C-clamp to push back calipers to avoid bleeding the brakes, and reverse my step and pump the brakes to allow new pads to set.

Questions:

1. Will this work on the 740?
2. What style tool (socket, allen key, or hammer) do I need to remove the pad unit?
3. Do I need to order a new check lining signal unit?
4. Is the front or rear the same level of difficulty?

The rotors look fine and I'll change them at the next go around.

Thanks for the reply,

Big H
