Didn't get the red BRAKE light on the dash, until I was down to 500 miles remaining based on the rear brake pad service indicator. Now I get the annoying prompt to drive moderately to have rear pads changed. In reality I've already changed with new rear pads. The only thing I didn't do was put in new rear brake sensors, I re-used the old ones. I have new brake pad sensors on the way, hopefully I'll be able to reset after I put them in. Is the root cause the old sensors? The front I swapped in new sensors, since the pads came with it. The rear pads didn't come with any.
BTW , i'm loving the Akebono ceremic pads. Its amazing that it produces zero brake dust. Performance is on par with stock if not better. It does squeal during the first thousand miles but eventually the noise goes away completely.

I'm not sure why you're having the "reset unsuccessful" issue with the rear still. I don't think it's because you reused the brake wear sensor, because I reused mine on both front and rear and was able to eventually get both to reset.
