What does a brake pad wear sensor do?

This electronic sensor alerts you when your brake pads are getting close to their minimum thickness. It typically makes a noise or triggers a warning light on your dashboard, letting you know it's time to replace the pads before they wear down too far and potentially damage your rotors.

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

You should replace the wear sensor whenever you replace your brake pads, especially if the old sensor was worn or damaged. If your dashboard warning light for brake wear is illuminated, it's a strong indication that the sensor needs to be replaced.
