You have to either fit the “repair loom” that replaces a fair length of the loom, or short out the two wires past the point at which the break has happened.Hmm,red wire has +12v and yellow 0, when I put the wires together, the light is still there,no fault codes, I haven t been driving for 4 monts, some repairements done, so the car should be like new one. The car is ready next week and then I have to resolve that problem too. Thanks for the advise....
Ok the yellow cable must be broken, and that s the reason why to put cables together near the instrument cluster am I right?You have to either fit the “repair loom” that replaces a fair length of the loom, or short out the two wires past the point at which the break has happened.
As the loom is constantly moving as the steering turns the break is likely to be somewhere after the point that it enters the engine bay from the wheel area.
Shorting it out sounds wrong but it is a complete loop anyway and it is only when the pads wear down so far that the wear through the wire in them and hence turn on the warning light.
Shorting the wires obviously removes the pad wear warning permanently but unless you totally neglect your car, you would be changing the pads as necessary anyway.
But the ideal solution is the “repair loom” to reinstate the warning check.

Evening Steve & @sonicci,Agreed,
It is just that basic loom wiring is (to me) simpler and less technical than instrument cluster wiring.
But if the instructions are clear on the cluster option then great!
As you say as long as the cat gets skinned!?
