Bosch Brake Pad Wear Sensor

The Bosch Brake Pad Wear Sensor (also called a brake pad wear indicator sensor or brake wear sensor) is an electronic component that monitors the condition of your brake pads. When the pad friction material wears down to its minimum safe thickness, the sensor sends a signal to the vehicle's instrument cluster. The dashboard warning light then comes on, so you know it is time to replace the pads.

Key Features:

• Gives an early electronic warning of worn brake pads so they can be replaced before rotor damage occurs
• Built to meet the quality and fit standards expected of Bosch, a leading supplier of original equipment automotive components
• Engineered to resist the heat, vibration, moisture and road debris found in a braking system
• Plug-in design that is typically replaced together with the brake pads

Replace the wear sensor whenever the brake pads are changed. This keeps the warning system working and helps maintain braking performance and safety.
