Frequently asked questions

What is the LR098988A brake pad wear wire?
The LR098988A is a front brake pad wear warning wire. It's a sensor loop that runs through the front brake pad and triggers a dashboard warning when the pad wears down to its limit. JLR callout 14A382.
Which models does this front pad wear wire fit?
This front brake pad wear wire fits the Defender L663 2020+, Discovery 5, Range Rover L405 2013-2022 and Range Rover Sport L494 2014-2022, on the larger front brake sizes. Confirm your front brake and caliper size with your VIN, as fitment follows the brake package.
Should the wear wire be replaced with the brake pads?
Yes, replace the LR098988A wear wire whenever you fit new front pads. The wire is designed to be cut or worn through as the pad wears, so a used sensor may not read correctly. Fitting a new one restores the low-pad warning.
What does the brake pad wear warning mean?
The brake pad wear warning means the front pads have worn to the point where the LR098988A wire has completed or broken its circuit. It's a signal to inspect and usually replace the front pads and the wear wire together before the pads run out.
