What is the purpose of a brake wear lead sensor?

A brake wear lead sensor is a small metal tab that makes contact with the rotor when the brake pad material is nearly gone. This contact creates a squealing noise or triggers a dashboard warning light, alerting you that your brake pads need to be replaced soon.

How do I know if I need to replace my brake pads?

If your brake wear lead sensors are making noise or your dashboard warning light is on, it's a clear indication that your brake pads are worn down. It's recommended to inspect and replace them promptly to avoid rotor damage.

Do these wear leads come with new brake pads?

No, this product is for the brake wear lead sensors only. They are typically installed when you are replacing your brake pads, and are not included with the pads themselves.

Product Details

These EBC brake wear lead sensors are designed to give you an audible or visual warning before your brake pads wear down to the metal. The sensor itself is a small metal tab that makes contact with the rotor once the pad material has worn away. This contact creates a squealing noise or triggers a warning light on your dashboard, letting you know it's time to replace your brake pads. This is crucial for preventing costly damage to your brake rotors, which can happen if you drive with worn-out pads for too long.

This kit includes the necessary wear lead sensors for the rear brakes. They are designed to fit specific pad dimensions, measuring 95 x 52 x 16mm, ensuring proper function with compatible brake pads. Installing these sensors is a straightforward process, typically done when you're replacing your brake pads. It's a small step that can save you a lot of money and hassle down the road by protecting your rotors from metal-on-metal contact.
