What does a brake wear lead sensor do?

This sensor is designed to make contact with the rotor when your brake pads have worn down to a critical level. This contact triggers a warning light on your dashboard, letting you know it's time to replace your brake pads before they damage your rotors.

How do I know if I need to replace my brake wear leads?

You'll typically need to replace these sensors whenever you replace your brake pads, especially if the old sensor was damaged or worn out. If your brake warning light is already on, it indicates the sensor has done its job and needs replacement along with the pads.

Does this sensor come with new brake pads?

No, this is a separate component. This listing is for the brake wear lead sensor only. You will need to purchase brake pads separately if you haven't already.

Product Details

The EBC brake wear lead sensor is a small but important piece of hardware for your Audi A6. It's designed to give you an early warning before your brake pads wear down to the point where they start grinding metal-on-metal against your rotors. This can save you from much more expensive repairs down the road, like replacing damaged rotors.

This particular sensor is made to work with FMSI pad number D1547, and it's a direct replacement for your factory sensor. It's a simple, well-built component that does its job reliably. When your brake pads are getting thin, this sensor will make contact and trigger a warning light on your dashboard, letting you know it's time for new pads.
