Detailed Description

PowerStop SW-0471 is a rear electronic brake wear sensor engineered for BMW rear brake systems that use a Euro-Stop style pad wear indicator. It is designed for direct replacement on 2010-2013 BMW 128i, 135i, 135is, 328i, 328i xDrive, 335i, 335i xDrive, 335is, and 335d rear applications, including the 2010 BMW 128i rear from 03/2010. This part number, SW-0471, is intended to restore accurate brake wear monitoring after service and to maintain the same basic connection and routing style as the original sensor.

This part cross-references Centric Parts 116.34071 for the same application.

What It Helps Address

• Brake wear warning light triggered by a worn rear sensor
• Damaged or brittle sensor wiring during brake service
• Incorrect brake wear signal after pad replacement
• Loss of continuity in the rear pad wear circuit
• Need for an OE-style rear sensor on BMW Euro-Stop brake systems

Installation Notes and Tips

Replace the rear wear sensor when servicing the brake pads and inspect the routing path for abrasion, heat damage, or broken retainers. Confirm connector shape, terminal style, and rear position before installation. On the 2010 BMW 128i, verify the build date note of from 03/2010. The SW-0471 is a rear sensor only and should be matched to the vehicle’s brake wear sensor location.

Quality Assurance

PowerStop designs this rear brake wear sensor to meet the same form, fit, and function as the original OEM part and to satisfy OEM-level requirements. The sensor is built for high-temperature operation and long-term conductivity, supporting reliable brake wear monitoring on BMW rear brake applications.
