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 LR122455 front brake pad wear sensor do?
The LR122455 is a front brake pad wear sensor for the Discovery 5, New Defender, Range Rover L405, and Range Rover Sport L494 with the 18 inch front brake setup. It's an electrical wire that lights a dashboard warning when the front pads reach their wear limit.
Does this wear sensor need replacing with the pads?
Yes, front brake pad wear sensors are typically single-use. Once the wire has worn through and triggered the warning, it can't be reused, so fit a new sensor with the new front pads. Reusing a triggered sensor leaves the low-pad warning inoperative.
How do I confirm this sensor fits my vehicle?
This sensor is for the front axle with the size 18 brake setup on the Discovery 5 (from VIN JA000001), New Defender, Range Rover L405, and Range Rover Sport L494 (non-SVR). Brake sizes vary, so check your caliper size and VIN before ordering.
