Is the sensor faulty or is this what its designed to do?

Lastly - should you replace the sensor with the pad (believe there is one sensor for front, one for rear)

Many thanks
I would always replace the sensor. Once it's tripped, you cannot use it again even on a new set of pads.

If the system doesn't let you reset on the dash even after changing the pads and the sensor, you're likely going to need someone who has ISTA-D to reset the interval for you. Default is 25,000km.
