This original Porsche brake pad wear sensor, also known as a sender wire or pad wear indicator, forms part of the brake monitoring system and helps alert the driver when the brake pads have reached their service limit.
What This Part Does / Functions
• Monitors brake pad wear
• Activates the brake pad warning system when the pads reach their wear limit
• Helps alert the driver before the brake pads become excessively worn
• Supports safe and timely brake maintenance
• Connects into the vehicle’s brake wear monitoring circuit
• Replaces a worn, damaged, broken or previously triggered sensor
• Provides correct OE Porsche fitment and connector style
• Helps restore correct brake pad warning system operation after brake service.
Why Replace This Part?
Brake pad wear sensors are exposed to heat, brake dust, water, road debris and vibration. In many cases, the sensor is designed to wear with the brake pad and should be replaced whenever new brake pads are fitted. A damaged or worn sensor may trigger a warning light, fail to alert the driver when the pads are worn, or break during brake pad replacement.
Replacing it with a Genuine Porsche OE brake pad wear sensor helps maintain accurate brake wear monitoring and correct factory fitment.
Common Symptoms of a Faulty Brake Pad Wear Sensor
• Brake pad warning light illuminated
• Warning light remains on after pad replacement
• Broken or brittle sensor wire
• Sensor worn through by brake pad contact
• Corroded or damaged connector
• False brake wear warning
• No warning despite worn brake pads
• Sensor damaged during brake service.
When to Replace This Part
• When replacing rear brake pads
• If the brake pad warning light is active
• If the sensor has contacted the brake disc
• If the sensor wire is damaged, cut, brittle or broken
• If the connector is corroded or no longer clips securely
• During rear brake caliper or brake disc service
• During brake system restoration
• When fitting new pads and restoring correct brake wear monitoring
Where It Fits on the Car
This sensor fits into the brake pad wear sensor slot on the relevant brake pad and connects to the vehicle’s brake wear warning wiring. It is commonly used at the rear caliper position on selected Porsche 987 Boxster and 987 Cayman models.
Correct routing is important to prevent the wire from rubbing against the wheel, brake disc or suspension components.

These OE direct-fit brake wear sensor integrates seamlessly with your Porsche's electronic braking system, ensuring accurate wear monitoring and helping prevent unnecessary brake disc damage caused by excessively worn brake pads.
What Does the Brake Pad Wear Sensor Do?
The brake pad wear sensor is an important safety component that monitors the thickness of the front brake pads. As the friction material wears down, the sensor eventually contacts the brake disc, completing an electrical circuit that activates the brake wear warning light on the dashboard.
Its primary functions include:
- Monitoring front brake pad wear.
- Activating the dashboard brake warning light.
- Preventing excessive brake pad wear.
- Helping protect the brake discs from damage.
- Supporting scheduled brake maintenance.
- Improving overall braking safety.
The sensor provides an early warning, allowing brake pads to be replaced before braking performance is compromised.
Why Do Brake Pad Wear Sensors Fail?
Brake wear sensors are consumable components and are
designed to be replaced during brake servicing. Common reasons for failure
include:
- Normal activation once the brake pads reach their wear limit.
- Heat generated by the braking system.
- Damage during brake pad removal.
- Road debris and moisture.
- Corrosion of the electrical contacts.
- Wiring damage caused by age or movement.
- General wear after years of service.
Once activated, the sensor cannot normally be reused and should always be replaced with new brake pads.
When Should the Brake Pad Wear Sensor Be Replaced?
Replacement is recommended whenever:
- The brake wear warning light is illuminated.
- New front brake pads are installed.
- The sensor has contacted the brake disc.
- The wiring has become damaged.
- Corrosion affects the electrical connector.
- During routine brake servicing.
- As part of a complete front brake overhaul.
Replacing the sensor at the same time as the brake pads ensures accurate future wear monitoring and avoids unnecessary labour costs.

This genuine Porsche brake pad wear sensor signals the brake system when the front brake pads are approaching their wear limits and need replacement.
Originally numbered 99160918180, this part now carries the updated Porsche reference 9GT907637 but remains identical in fit, function, and OE authenticity. It integrates with the vehicle’s ABS and braking system electronics to provide timely alerts and support safe operation.
The wear sensor continuously monitors brake pad thickness and electrical continuity. When the pad material reaches a specified minimum level, the sensor triggers a warning in the driver information system to indicate that pad replacement is due - helping you avoid excessive wear or potential damage to discs.
Function:
• Detects brake pad wear on the front axle
• Sends timely alerts to the vehicle’s onboard diagnostic system
• Helps prevent brake pad and disc damage due to overdue replacement
• Genuine OE Porsche design ensures perfect electrical integration
• Factory-tested for consistent performance and longevity.
Brake pads naturally wear over time, and monitoring their condition is critical for safe, reliable braking performance. A worn or missing wear sensor can lead to pad wear going undetected, increasing the risk of rotor damage and compromised stopping power. Replacing the wear sensor with a genuine Porsche OE part ensures accurate detection and maintains compliance with factory safety systems.
When to replace:
• Brake wear warning light activates on the dashboard
• After installing new brake pads If the sensor is damaged or broken
• During front brake servicing or rotor replacement
• When replacing brake calipers with integrated sensors
