Jumper Wear Sensor?

A month or so ago I replaced my track pads with OEM's to get through the winter. All went well but about a week ago the Break Wear Sensor light came on. I just pulled all 4 wheels and all appears OK. I am pretty sure I have the original, 12 year old, sensors and that they are the issue.

While reading the forums on this topic, I saw where some folks that track their cars frequently "jumper" the sensor so as to not use it and keep the light off. I understand the concept but I am not sure exactly how to do this. Can someone write a brief description?

Thanks!

Jumpering:

Follow the sensor wire to the connector behind the brake disc.

Disconnect the wire from the plug.

Cut through the sheath and 2 wires inside a few inches out from the plug. Join the two wires together (solder) and seal from the elements.

Plug your spliced wire back in to the connector.

Done.
