Product Information

Brake pad wear sensors are used to monitor the thickness of your vehicle's brake pad friction lining. When the minimum safe thickness is reached the pad wear sensor comes into contact with the brake rotor and opens the circuit which in turn triggers a warning on your instrument cluster notifying you that it is time to service your brakes. Whether or not the pad wear sensor has been triggered it is highly recommended to replace the pad wear sensor when replacing brake pads. They tend to become fragile with age and can easily break when removed from old brake pads causing false warnings after completing the service,

WARNING: Proposition 65 information
Disc Brake Pad Wear Sensor

Disc Brake Pad Wear Sensors, or Brake Pad Sensor, as they're commonly called, are used as an instrument to alert the driver when the brake pads of the vehicle are at a low level and are in need of replacement. Operation of the sensor is simple where it is wired to the brake control module with 12v and when the brake pad becomes low enough, the sensor will ultimately surface and make contact with the rotor which in turn grounds the sensor and completes the circuit which triggers the light in your instrument cluster. The Brake Pad Wear Sensor is recommended to be replaced at the time of brake pad replacement.

About Bowa

BOWA engineers its brake wear sensors in Germany, which are then 100% manufactured in their modern factory in Poland. This means that every brake wear sensor offered by BOWA is produced by BOWA – nothing is re-boxed from other suppliers. Unlike the competition, who claim they are "the" OE Manufacturer, BOWA is the predominant supplier of brake wear sensors to the German car makers. BMW trusts BOWA almost exclusively for production and aftersales, shouldn't you?

Good sensor. Don't forget to reset your service interval when sensor is replaced.

Question Posted by Roberto
I recently changed my front brake pads and installed this sensor. When I tried to reset the interval on my dash it did not seem to work. I followed all the steps to reset the wear pad sensor but nothing worked. Any advice? Is It possible that this device is effective?
Answer (Posted by FCP Euro Products Team)
A pad wear sensor is a fairly simple device on most cars. The metal clip that you see in the plastic head of the sensor wears through when the pads get low, and this causes an "open" circuit which the car reads as the pads being low. If the sensor is not damaged and the metal clip is in place, the circuit will be closed, and it's unlikely that the sensor is the problem.
Question Posted by Ayaz
so you are saying i only need one of these during a front brake pad set replacement? i.e im doing right and left tires but the wear sensor is only located on one tire?? on one tire in the front and one tire on the rear?
Answer (Posted by FCP Euro Products Team)
The front pad wear sensor is located on the front left caliper and the rear pad wear sensor is located on the rear right caliper.
Question Posted by William
Are these located left and right or just one? Do I need 1 or 2 to replace my front brakes?
Answer (Posted by FCP Euro Products Team)
There is one sensor on the front left corner and one on the rear right for the applications in question.
