Default Replace Brake Lights "ON" on dash 2012 XJL-SC

I ordered front and rear ceramic pads, and they appear not to have any wires coming out for a "Wear" indicator. My old 750Li had wear sensors that came with the pads. WIll I need to replace a "Wear" sensor also? Will attempt the replacement tonight.
Any tips? I own a Rear caliper "screw-in" jig for the emergency brake.

Thanks

There are wear sensors at each inner brake pad assembly. You will have to inspect each one to see if the rotor lip has cut into it to sever the embedded wire that then turns on the brake pad wear indicator in the dash. You will need to replace any sensor that is worn through.
