Each brake pad sensor has a connector. Fronts are located inside engine compartment just inside wheel well grommet. The rears are a bit more difficult to get to but are located on rear suspension. So how the system works is simple. If there is an open in any brake pad loop then you get a light. So you can physically look for an area that looks broken or disconnect each connector and put a loop wire to bypass the sensor and see if that light goes out. If so, that’s your issue. Or; you can disconnect and take a multimeter and do a continuity check, if no continuity then that’s your issue. I had found this out when I changed my pads and received corvette pads(which are the same for carbon ceramic model) but they have different sensor wires. Summit are idiots and doesn’t know the Z28 exists but labeled pads for Z28 as well. But they gave me a good discount if I kept them. So I came up with a bypass plug to keep the light off. You cannot get the sensor harness separate from anyone, but a great member sent me his spare harness.
Short story long, pm me if you have questions.
I have a set of (have to double check) C7 front corvette brake sensor harness if anyone is in need
