Product Details

This Global Parts brake wear sensor 1813540 is engineered for BMW front brake systems that use an electronic pad wear indicator. The sensor tracks pad thinning and triggers the dashboard warning when brake pads approach replacement thickness. For drivers searching for a front brake pad wear sensor for BMW 135i 2011-2013 or BMW 135is 2013, this part number 1813540 provides the correct direct-replacement format for the listed applications. This part cross-references Holstein 2BWS0253 for the same application.

What It Helps Address

  • Brake pad wear warning light staying on after sensor failure
  • Inaccurate or delayed brake pad wear alerts
  • Damaged sensor wiring at the front brake assembly
  • Service replacement after front brake pad wear inspection
  • Loss of brake wear monitoring on BMW 135i and 135is models

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify front axle fitment before installation and compare the connector shape, terminal type, and wire routing to the original sensor. Inspect the brake pad and rotor condition at the same time, since a worn sensor often indicates the pads are near service limit. Clear any stored wear indicator message after the sensor is installed and the brake system has been checked.

Quality Assurance

Global Parts 1813540 is built as a direct replacement sensor for the listed BMW applications and is intended to restore proper brake wear monitoring when the original sensor is no longer functioning correctly.
