What happens if I don't replace my brake pads when the wear lead sensor activates?

If the brake wear sensor activates and you continue to drive, the brake pad material will completely wear away. This allows the metal backing plate of the pad to grind directly against your brake rotor, causing severe damage that will require rotor replacement in addition to new pads.

Do these wear leads come with new brake pads?

No, this product is for the rear brake wear leads only. They are designed to be installed along with new brake pads when your current pads are worn down.

How do I know if my BMW M5 has rear brake wear sensors?

The 2014-2016 BMW M5 is typically equipped with front and rear brake wear sensors. These leads are designed to connect to the existing wiring harness on your vehicle for the rear brake pad wear indication system.

Product Details

These EBC rear brake wear leads are designed to give you an early warning before your brake pads wear down to the metal. They work by making contact with the rotor surface once the pad material has worn away, completing a circuit that typically triggers a warning light on your dashboard. This helps you avoid the costly damage that can occur when brake pads wear completely through, which grinds the metal backing plate directly against your brake rotors.

This specific set is made for the FMSI D1469 brake pad size, ensuring a proper fit for your 2014-2016 BMW M5. Installing these leads is a straightforward part of replacing your rear brake pads. They are a simple, well-built component that offers peace of mind by helping you stay ahead of brake maintenance.
