Brake pad wear sensor. Porsche 964 / 993  ❭  99361236801

Brake Pad Wear Sensor, Front.
The OE Match Front Brake Pad Wear Sensor is a high-quality replacement braking system component designed to monitor the condition of the front brake pads and provide a warning when the friction material reaches its minimum service thickness. Manufactured to OE specifications for fit, function and reliability, this sensor helps ensure timely brake maintenance and supports safe vehicle operation.  

Fits:

• Porsche 964 (911) RS 3.6L 1991-93
• Porsche 964 (911) RS 3.8L 1991-93
• Porsche 964 (911) TURBO 3.3L 1991-93
• Porsche 964 (911) TURBO 3.6L 1991-93
• Porsche 993 (911) C4S 1994-97
• Porsche 993 (911) TURBO 1994-96
• Porsche 993 (911) GT2 1994-97
• Porsche 993 (911) TURBO S 1994-97  

Installed directly into the front brake pad assembly, the sensor continuously monitors brake pad wear and communicates with the vehicle's brake warning system. When the brake pads wear down to a predetermined limit, the sensor activates the dashboard brake wear warning light, alerting the driver that replacement brake pads are required.  

What This Product Does:

• Monitors front brake pad wear throughout the life of the brake pads.
• Activates the brake wear warning indicator when service is required.
• Provides early warning of brake maintenance needs.
• Helps prevent excessive brake pad wear.
• Protects brake discs from damage caused by worn brake pads.
• Supports safe and efficient braking performance.
• Assists with preventative brake system maintenance.

Symptoms Of Wear Or Failure:

• Brake wear warning light remaining illuminated.
• Intermittent brake wear warning messages.
• False brake wear alerts despite sufficient brake pad thickness.
• No warning indication when brake pads are excessively worn.
• Damaged, broken or frayed sensor wiring.
• Corrosion or physical damage to the sensor body.
• Brake monitoring fault codes stored within the vehicle system.
• Warning light remaining active after brake pad replacement.

Why Replacement Matters:

• Front brake pad wear sensors operate in a harsh environment and are continually exposed to heat, brake dust, moisture, road debris and vibration. In many applications, the sensor is designed to wear alongside the brake pads and should be replaced whenever new front brake pads are fitted to ensure accurate brake wear monitoring.
• A damaged or malfunctioning sensor can provide inaccurate brake wear information, potentially causing unnecessary warning lights or, more importantly, failing to alert the driver when brake pads require replacement. Excessively worn brake pads can reduce braking efficiency and cause costly damage to the brake discs and related braking components.
• Replacing a worn front brake pad wear sensor restores accurate brake monitoring, ensures proper operation of the dashboard warning system and helps maintain optimum braking performance and safety. An OE Match replacement provides factory-style fitment, dependable operation and long-term reliability, making it an essential component during brake servicing and maintenance.
