Yes or No. You would not drive a vehicle for years without ever disassembly,cleaning and lube of you r brakes between pad and rotor service. So you wouldn't ever get to the sensor point , and brakes never fail,there neglected by every vehicle owner. Please don't view my approach as negative but most people only do break down service/maintenance. I have never had a brake issue in 46 years doing my own veh work, and I owned a shop at one time.

Testimonial: "Last year my mechanic looked at them and said they were fine. My brakes are working fine, but the brake pedal just feels a little different. "

No, the only time a light will come on the dash is if the pads are so worn the master cylinder has to go beyond the normal operating range. Other than that you will hear squealing from the wheels when you use the brakes. This is an indicator the pads are getting worn. If you feel sponginess in your brakes you should get them checked out as soon as you can as failure may be close.

You need to remove complete front dash panel, where are the knobs. First start with the radio cover, after go gently through the all screws, which holds the dash panel.

1996 TOYOTA CAMRY IN THE MAIN MONITOR I HAVE A LIGHT ON OF THE BATTERY AND THE CAR WITH THE REAR LIGHTS ON, WHAT IS IT?

The battery light indicates your vehicle has battery voltage or lower, meaning your alternator is not charging correctly or the battery is not receiving the charge correctly.

Have your charging system tested to determine if the fault is the alternator or the battery. it is usually the alt.

The picture of the car with the rear lights on is your rear light failure indicator.
It is telling you that you have either a tail or brake bulb that is blown out... although with age the sensors tend to fail, so if all the bulbs work, look into the tail light module as a problem. It is located in the drivers rear wheel well behind the carpet and is yellow. it typically will have burn marks on it when it fails.
