Brake warning light on!

[mattjay50]

Hi all, just commuting home and my brake wear sensor light has come on, got home and checked front pads and there's plenty of life on them, rears look a little low so my question is......
Do the rears have a wear sensor on? If not is there any known faults with the wear sensor wiring? Cheers in advance for any help

Car is a 2008 tdi s line 140bhp

Rears don't. The front sensor is on the inside pad where you can't see it.

I have the EXACT same issue on mine. I had low rear pads, with the brake wear sensor light up on my dash, so I changed the rears. When I went to go buy the pads, I realised there was no sensors on the rears. Front pads are fine.

Either the sensor isn't plugged in properly or damaged.

I will soon and update you of my findings, or if you find out before, please let us know
