What It Helps Address

• Brake pad wear warning light or sensor alert
• Frayed or damaged original wear sensor
• Loss of brake pad wear monitoring at the front axle
• Need for a replacement sensor during brake service

Installation Notes

Install on the front brake position only and verify the BMW model-year application before ordering. Inspect the brake pads and related wiring during service, and replace the sensor when the wear indicator has been triggered or the sensor is damaged. This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.
