: I just bought a 1983 733i and the brake lining warning light is on in the dash. I took off the sensors and that didn't effect it and the brake system was just replaced so...any ideas??? Thanks in advance...

You need to replace the sensors...it's just a connection which breaks due to the wear of the pads (at a certain point the disc 'reaches' the sensor). Removing them is also a break in the circuit hence: no improvement on the warning...

hope this helps...
Marco
