Default OT: Car battery volt drop

I once had disks and pads replaced by a local garage and years later
when replacing the pads myself found that the low pad wires had not been
connected - they had been neatly coiled up and cable tied safely out of
the way.


I had a pad on my Renault 20 wear down to the backing, which made
for a gentle run home. There was a monitoring wire which fed an
indicator, but because it was connected only to the pad on the
easiest side to run the wire, it was also on the side of the
caliper which wore least.
