swapping rotors. The pads are w/o sensors and have been in w/o any problem for about 5k now, I only just swapped out the rotors for new ones.

The rears had an R and L on them (written), fronts didn't...
however the vanes on the rears both point back ( \ ) whereas the vanes on the front point ( / ) forward.
I am going to check the wires, they were shorted before.

if you hold the rotor up and look down the middle of it, the vanes will be slanted one direction..
on the driver's side, you want to the vanes like this:
