Genuine BMW Disc Brake Pad Wear Sensor – 34356860181 – For BMW Vehicles
Manufacturer Part Number: 34356860181
The Genuine BMW Disc Brake Pad Wear Sensor is an essential component designed to ensure your braking system operates safely and efficiently. This premium-grade sensor is engineered to OEM standards, providing you with the reliability and performance that BMW owners expect. As part of the braking system, the wear sensor alerts you when brake pads are nearing the end of their life, preventing potential brake failure and ensuring your vehicle remains safe on the road.
Commonly found in higher-end and luxury vehicles, this disc brake pad wear sensor creates an electrical loop that completes while the brake pads are above minimum thickness. When the pads wear down, the loop is broken, illuminating a warning light on your dashboard. This timely alert allows you to replace your brake pads promptly, maintaining your vehicle’s braking performance and safety.
If your BMW came equipped with wear sensors, it is crucial to replace them during every brake job to avoid the annoyance of a continuous warning light on your dashboard.
