Rear Brake Pad Wear Sensor.
The OE Match Rear Brake Pad Wear Sensor is a high-quality replacement braking system component designed to monitor the condition of the rear brake pads and provide a warning when the friction material reaches its minimum safe operating thickness. Manufactured to OE specifications for fit, performance and reliability, this sensor helps ensure timely brake maintenance and supports safe, consistent braking performance.  



Fits:

• Porsche 944 2.5L 8V 1982-87
• Porsche 944 Turbo 2.5L 8V 1985-88

Installed directly into the rear brake pad assembly, the sensor forms part of the vehicle's brake wear monitoring system. As the brake pads wear down through normal use, the sensor detects when the service limit has been reached and activates the dashboard brake wear warning light, notifying the driver that brake pad replacement is required.

What This Product Does:   

• Monitors rear brake pad wear throughout the life of the brake pads.
• Activates the brake wear warning indicator when service is required.
• Provides early notification of brake maintenance requirements.
• Helps prevent excessive brake pad wear.
• Protects brake discs from damage caused by worn brake pads.
• Supports safe and efficient braking performance.
• Assists with preventative maintenance of the braking system.

Symptoms Of Wear Or Failure:

• Brake wear warning light remaining illuminated.
• Intermittent brake wear warning messages.
• False brake wear alerts despite adequate brake pad thickness.
• No warning indication when brake pads are excessively worn.
• Damaged, broken or frayed sensor wiring.
• Corrosion or physical damage to the sensor body.
• Brake monitoring fault codes stored within the vehicle system.
• Warning light remaining active after brake pad replacement.

Why Replacement Matters:

• Rear brake pad wear sensors operate in harsh conditions and are continually exposed to brake dust, heat, moisture, road debris and vibration. In many applications, the sensor is designed to wear alongside the brake pads and should be replaced whenever new rear brake pads are installed to ensure accurate wear monitoring.
• A damaged or malfunctioning sensor can provide inaccurate brake wear information, potentially resulting in unnecessary warning lights or failure to alert the driver when brake service is required. If brake pads wear beyond their safe operating limit, braking efficiency can be reduced and costly damage to the brake discs may occur.
• Replacing a worn rear brake pad wear sensor restores accurate brake wear monitoring, ensures proper operation of the dashboard warning system and helps maintain safe braking performance. An OE Match replacement provides factory-style fitment, dependable operation and long-term reliability, making it an essential component during brake servicing and maintenance.
