Carlson 13531 Front Brake Wear Sensor

Carlson 13531 is a front disc brake pad wear sensor built for Mercedes-Benz applications that use electronic pad wear monitoring. It helps provide accurate brake pad wear detection so the driver receives a replacement indication at the proper time.

Key Features

  • Front disc brake pad wear sensor for monitored brake systems
  • Supports accurate pad wear detection and replacement indication
  • Designed for Mercedes-Benz front brake applications
  • Paraphrases Carlson’s system-based brake service approach for consistent performance
  • Part number 13531 for easy catalog lookup

Detailed Description

Brakes work as a system, and the sensor is part of that system on select Mercedes-Benz models. Carlson 13531 is made for front brake wear monitoring on 2000-2002 Mercedes-Benz S600, 2000-2002 Mercedes-Benz SL600, 2001-2002 Mercedes-Benz CL600, 2001-2002 Mercedes-Benz S500, 2003-2004 Mercedes-Benz CLK500, and 2004 Mercedes-Benz S500. If you are servicing a Mercedes-Benz S500, CL600, or CLK500 with a front pad wear warning circuit, this part number 13531 supports the vehicle’s wear-indication function.

This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.

What It Helps Address

  • Brake pad wear warning light staying on after service
  • Inaccurate pad wear detection at the front axle
  • Loss of brake pad replacement indication on monitored systems
  • Sensor replacement during front brake pad service on Mercedes-Benz models

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the vehicle’s front brake wear sensor routing and connector style before installation. Inspect the harness, clips, and pad wear circuit for damage during brake service, and confirm the warning system resets correctly after the repair. Use the vehicle’s service procedure for the specific Mercedes-Benz model and model year.

Quality Assurance

Carlson designs brake service components with system performance in mind, supporting proper operation of monitored brake systems when the correct application is selected.
