Carlson Brake Parts 19131 Disc Brake Pad Electronic Wear Sensor

The Carlson Brake Parts 19131 is a disc brake pad electronic wear sensor designed to alert drivers when brake pad replacement is needed. This sensor mounts directly to the brake pad and is routed through the caliper, where it monitors pad thickness during operation.

How It Works:

As brake pads wear down through normal use, the wear sensor contacts the brake rotor surface when the pad reaches a predetermined minimum thickness. This contact causes the sensor to become frayed, which triggers the brake warning light on the vehicle's dashboard. The sensor is strategically positioned to provide adequate advance warning, allowing time for brake service before rotor damage or brake failure can occur.

Key Features:

• Manufactured with quality materials for optimal performance and proper function
• Engineered to OE specifications for direct fit and function
• Alerts operator when brake pads and hardware need replacement
• Designed for both city and highway driving conditions
• Contains no remanufactured components
• Single-use design - must be replaced during brake pad service

Important: The wear sensor cannot be reused after pad replacement and must be replaced whenever new brake pads are installed to maintain proper brake warning system function.
