Brembo A00291 Disc Brake Pad Wear Sensor - Rear

Brake Pad Wear Sensor Overview

Brembo A00291 is a disc brake pad wear sensor made to OE specifications for rear brake applications. It monitors pad thickness and sends a warning when the pads reach minimal thickness, helping keep brake service intervals visible on the vehicle.

Key Features

• Electronic wear sensor monitors brake pad thickness and triggers a replacement warning.
• OE-equivalent design matches original sensor behavior.
• Premium OE Equivalent Wear Sensor product line from Brembo.
• Fits Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 1500 and Sprinter 2500 rear brake applications.
• Part number A00291 for easy identification during brake service.

Detailed Description

Brembo A00291 is engineered as a direct OE-style brake pad wear sensor for rear brake systems. It is designed to work with the vehicle’s warning strategy by tracking pad wear and signaling when the pads are near minimum thickness. This makes it a practical replacement during brake service on Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 1500 and Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 2500 models. This part cross-references Hella Pagid (e.g., 355250761) for the same application.

The Premium OE Equivalent Wear Sensor line focuses on matching original sensor function and fitment expectations. Brembo A00291 is a straightforward choice when replacing a worn or damaged sensor during brake pad service, especially on 2010-2013 and 2014-2018 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 2500 rear applications and 2019-2021 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 1500 rear applications.

Common Issues It Can Help Address

• Brake pad wear warning light stays on after pad service.
• Damaged or worn sensor no longer reports pad thickness correctly.
• Need for a replacement sensor during brake pad maintenance.
• Loss of wear indication on rear brake service intervals.

Installation Notes and Tips

Replace the wear sensor when servicing brake pads, as Brembo recommends renewing the sensor with each brake pad replacement. Verify the rear application and connector routing before installation. Confirm the part number A00291 against the vehicle’s brake system before ordering.

Quality Assurance

Made to OE specifications, Brembo A00291 is built to perform like the original wear sensor on the vehicle. Brembo’s OE-equivalent approach supports consistent warning function and service fitment for the listed Mercedes-Benz Sprinter applications.
