Darn brake sensor reset

So I foolishly ran down both front and rear brake sensors to the point where the system does not let me reset the warning even after changing the pads--happens easily when tracking the car.

I decided to just short the wires in the old sensors to allow it reset. Starting at the rear, I cut off the sensor head and tied the wires together, pretty sure that worked. However, the system does not budge, i.e. when I try the reset at the stalk it does not allow me to reset just as before.

Stumped now; I did actually buy new sensors but was hoping not to have to use them (plus the rear is a bitch to fit) while the car is seeing track duty..

Anyone who knows how to do this?
