Brake Pads Worn Sensor

Hi all,

Get the brake pads worn error when pads are relatively new, take it I need to replace the sensor(s), is there a specific part number for these or are they a generic part?

Thanks

Inspect the sensor connections. I had my brakes done once by a shop and they broke the sensor when plugging it into the caliper causing the brake light to turn on after 500 miles.

Some folks like me just run without them. Ya know...like in the ancient technology times when we all had to look at the pads & rotors once in a while. ;-)

Zero issues or warnings for me on my 2010 X5M (or on my E46 M3 when I had done the same with it years ago)
