You need to reset the brake warning light. Google that and follow the process. I did it recently. No special tools required.

Two fronts and one back, 3 sensors total. Chances are you replaced 1 sensor but the other has worn as well. I would replace both fronts and reset.

I contacted my local shop and they confirmed the regular pads would work but not the track version.

Edited - Oh you're asking about the wear sensors. Yes some aftermarket pads allow you to re-use the wear sensors. But most people do not bother.
