Brake Wear Sensors are designed to fail. When they do, it's time to replace the brake pads. The most common type of electronic wear sensors are mounted into the brake pad itself. On some applications the wear sensor is embedded into the pad and not removable; therefore they are only available with the brake pad. When the brake pad wears down to its discard thickness due to contacting the rotor while braking over the course of time, the sensor will make contact to the rotor, thus grounding the sensor. This will cause a brake warning light to illuminate on your dash or instrument cluster, indicating that the brake pad friction material is almost gone and that replacement brake pads are needed.
The mechanical brake pad wear sensors are small metal tabs on the backing plate of a brake pad. They are designed to contact the brake rotor surface and make a squealing or scraping noise when the brake pads have worn down to the point of needing replacement.
PEX began with the simple ambition of manufacturing PEX own sensors. PEX started with quality materials, German ingenuity, and hard work. This became PEX tradition of quality and reliability with a keen eye for detail. PEX then partnered with iconic brands like Volkswagen/Audi, Mercedes, and Porsche to provide them with the warning devices needed to facilitate their own pursuit of quality. PEX roots are simple as is the functionality of PEX sensors; however, it is not to be confused with mimics which may not adhere to the standards PEX OE customers demand. When choosing a warning device that detects the remaining longevity of your brake pads, choose PEX. Allow us to let you know when it's time to service your brakes.
