MAXGEAR 23-0030 Brake Pad Wear Sensor

Brake pad wear sensors are designed to alert you before your pads wear down to metal-on-metal contact, protecting your rotors from damage. The MAXGEAR 23-0030 is manufactured to OE specifications, restoring accurate, reliable wear warnings.

Key Benefits

The MAXGEAR 23-0030 warning contact is manufactured to restore accurate pad wear monitoring. Here’s what this replacement part offers:

• Early warning protection that helps prevent costly rotor damage from pads worn down to metal-on-metal contact.
• Straightforward installation using factory mounting points and connector types.
• OE-matching fitment designed to connect directly to your vehicle’s existing wiring harness with no modification.
• MAXGEAR manufacturing standards, backed by a standard parts warranty against defects in material and workmanship.
• Accurate wear detection engineered to MAXGEAR 23-0030’s original electrical and mechanical specifications.

Product Specifications

Every MAXGEAR 23-0030 warning contact is manufactured to match OE electrical and dimensional specifications. Full technical details are listed below; always verify fitment against your vehicle’s VIN before ordering.

MAXGEAR is an aftermarket brand focused on precision-engineered brake sensor and hardware components manufactured to strict quality-control standards.

Use Cases and Applications

This warning contact is suited for addressing a stuck or malfunctioning brake wear warning light, replacing a sensor during pad service, and restoring accurate pad wear monitoring. Typical scenarios where drivers choose this part include:

• Replacing a sensor after the wear warning light stays on despite adequate remaining pad material.
• Restoring warning functionality after a sensor fails to alert at the expected wear point.
• Installing a new sensor alongside a brake pad replacement, as many manufacturers recommend.
• Addressing a sensor damaged during a previous brake service.

Because wear sensors are manufactured for a specific electrical connector and mounting configuration, this part is intended as a direct match for the applications it’s designed for — always confirm fitment against your vehicle’s OE part number before ordering. Keeping this sensor in good working order helps protect your rotors from the accelerated wear and damage that comes from driving on pads that are worn past their service life.

EAN details for this brake pad wear sensor are listed in the specifications table above where available.

Do you ship to my state?

Yes, we ship to all 50 U.S. states with tracked, insured shipping on every order.

Can I install this sensor myself?

Experienced DIY mechanics can typically install a wear sensor at home, especially during a brake pad replacement when the wheel is already off. If you’re not comfortable working on your brake system, we recommend having it installed by a qualified technician.

Why does my brake wear warning light stay on even with new pads?

This usually indicates a failed wear sensor rather than a pad issue — the sensor circuit may be damaged or not resetting properly. Replacing the sensor typically resolves the issue.

Is this a direct OE replacement?

Yes. The MAXGEAR 23-0030 is engineered to match the connector type and mounting configuration of the original equipment sensor, so no modification is required for installation.
