Did you replace the rotor?
No I did not replace the rotor...
Does smoke all the time?
And why would you only replace one side pads?
I replaced the driver and passenger side brake pads. I came home through at a maximum speed of 45 mph and it did not smoke.
It may have been something on the new pads that burned off when u drove it.Quote:

Big thing to look for is excessive heat. If that caliper is stuck it will over heat in a few miles.

It was the caliper.....however, now my brake lights stay on.
low brake fluid or your e brake is on.

i have the e brake on because its a manual & the reservoir is full.
Sorry I read that the brake light on the dash was on.
There is a push button switch mounted top of the brake pedal (underdash) that triggers the brake lights.
