Reason for change

Complaint

The brake wear indicator in the instrument cluster lights up because of a brake wear sensor fault message.

Cause

An insufficient gap between the pad backing plate and the wear sensor connector (see picture_1) means that, as wear on the brake pad increases, the

wear sensor connector is pried out by the pad backing plate and consequently the connection is broken.

File Designation

Remedy

Remove edge on rear part of the connector (see picture_2).

Note:

Make sure that the lines are not damaged here!
