Brake Pad Wear Sensor for the front axle, part of the brake pad wear warning circuit.

The sensor is located in the brake pad and carries a wire loop that the brake disc severs once the friction material has worn down to its limit. Breaking the loop signals the instrument cluster to display the pad wear warning. Once triggered the sensor cannot be reused and is renewed together with the pads.

Frequently asked questions

What does the front brake pad wear sensor do?
The front brake pad wear sensor warns the driver when the front pads reach their wear limit. It's an electrical sensor that completes a circuit as the pad material thins, lighting a brake warning on the dashboard.
Do I replace the wear sensor with the pads?
Fit a new wear sensor whenever you replace the front brake pads, as the sensor is consumed once it triggers. One sensor covers the front axle on these models, and reusing a tripped or damaged sensor typically leaves the warning light on.
Which models does this front wear sensor fit?
This front wear sensor fits Discovery 5 (from VIN JA000001), New Defender L663, Range Rover L405 (from VIN JA000001) and Range Rover Sport L494 (non-SVR, from VIN JA000001), all with the 18-inch front brake setup. Check your VIN and brake size before ordering.
