Default Wiring diagram S6 instrument cluster

I have the brake pad warning light coming on intermittently and would like to permanently turn it off because it is very annoying. I have shorted/bridged the wires from the brake pads but still the light comes on. I have read how to permanently turn of the light for the S8 by earthing the warning light directly at the instrument display cluster and would like to do the same for my S6.
Could someone please send/post the wiring diagram plus pin out assignment for the instrument cluster for an Audi S6 year 2000 with VDO display
Thanks for the help!

You are better off jumping the harness just inside the firewall.

Follow the harness to the point in the wheel well where it enters the car.
Pop the grommet out and gently pull the two plugs out.
Jumper the sensor plug.

ACHTUNG! Not not fock this up! Make sure you jump the pad sensor and not the ABS sensor.
