Brake Pad Wear Sensors
By OE Match
- Porsche Carrera GT 2003-06
Front brake pad wear sensor by OE Match this replacement wire sensor supports the vehicle’s brake pad wear warning system.
Fits
Porsche Carrera GT 2003-2006 FRONT
Check fitment for your specific vehicle (model, year, engine) before ordering.
What This Product Does
The sensor provides an electrical indication when brake pads reach their wear limit. It forms part of the warning circuit rather than measuring braking force or controlling the brakes.
Functions
- Detects when the monitored brake pad reaches its wear limit.
- Supports the dashboard brake pad wear warning.
- Provides a replacement for a worn or damaged front sensor wire.
Technical Details
- Brand: OE Match.
- Component: brake pad wear sensor wire.
- Installation position: Front.
- Application: Porsche Carrera GT, 2003–2006.
- Recorded references: 98061234702 and 98061234701.
Price shown is for each wire sensor.
Symptoms of Fault
- A brake wear warning remains illuminated after pad renewal.
- Sensor wiring shows damage or deterioration.
- Retaining clips are broken or the sensor is displaced.
A warning does not establish that the sensor alone is faulty. Inspect pad condition, wiring and connections before deciding which components require replacement.
Why Replacement Matters
Renewal is normally recommended alongside brake pad replacement, particularly if the existing sensor has worn through or suffered damage. Replacing a defective sensor helps restore the pad wear warning circuit; it does not resolve faults in discs, pads or calipers.
FAQs
Is this a complete axle set?
The stated unit is one wire sensor. Confirm the quantity needed for the planned repair.
Should the sensor be renewed with the pads?
Sensor renewal is normally recommended during pad changes. A worn or damaged sensor should not be reused.
What should be checked before fitting?
Compare the original reference, front brake application, connector and cable routing with the component being removed. Inspect the retaining clips and adjoining wiring at the same time.

The brake pad wear sensor harness serves as the electrical link between each brake pad wear sensor and the vehicle’s signal/monitoring circuitry (ABS/ECU). As the pads wear down to a threshold level, the sensor completes a circuit that triggers a warning light on the dash, alerting the driver that pad replacement is due.

Function: This harness routes and secures the sensor wiring safely along the suspension and chassis to avoid interference, chafing, or damage. The OE Match harness preserves correct electrical paths and protects the sensor signal from interruption - essential for accurate brake pad condition monitoring.
Brake pad wear sensor systems rely on both the sensor element and the wiring harness to deliver accurate warnings. A damaged or broken harness can interrupt the signal even with new sensors fitted, leading to false “OK” readings or no warning when pads are worn. Replacing the wiring harness with an OE Match unit ensures reliable signal transmission and correct integration with the vehicle’s monitoring systems, helping prevent brake damage or unexpected failures.
When to replace.
Replace this harness if you notice any of the following:
• Brake wear warning lamp stays off despite worn pads
• Intermittent or false pad wear warnings
• Visible frayed wiring, broken connectors, or chafing
• Previous repairs with generic wiring failed
• During brake pad or ABS sensor system servicing

OEMatch Brake Pad Wear Sensors — Stopping Power, Consistent Control
OEMatch brake pad wear sensors for Porsche models monitor pad thickness and provide timely warnings when replacement is needed. Accurate sensing supports routine maintenance, helps protect discs from excessive wear and contributes to predictable braking behaviour across classic and modern Porsche vehicles.
Understanding OEMatch Brake Pad Wear SensorsOEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) parts are made by the same company that produced your Porsche’s original brake pad wear sensors. OE (Original Equipment) refers to parts matching original specifications for the brake pad wear sensors and may be supplied by alternative manufacturers. Aftermarket parts offer alternative options, sometimes with enhanced features or better value. OEMatch supplies non-OEM brake pad wear sensors engineered as direct-fit alternatives to OEM parts, made to original-spec dimensions and tolerances for Porsche models. These sensors detect pad material loss either by completing or interrupting an electrical circuit or by a change in resistance as the pad wears, which triggers a dashboard warning or service message. Sensors are routed and secured close to the pads and rely on intact insulation and secure connectors to deliver reliable signals. OEMatch maintains a wide Porsche-focused catalogue and extensive OE cross-references to help identify the correct item for each model and application.
Benefits Include- Restores accurate pad-wear monitoring so replacements are identified in good time.
- Helps prevent unnecessary disc damage by prompting timely pad changes.
- Simplifies servicing with standardised connections and mounting that fit original locations.
- Supports consistent warning-system behaviour across many Porsche models.
- Exposure to high brake temperatures can melt or crack sensor housings or cable insulation.
- Corrosion or ingress from water and road salt can cause electrical faults.
- Abrasion and vibration can wear or fray sensor cables and protective sleeving.
- Poor connector contacts or incorrect routing during servicing may interrupt the signal.
Replacing faulty or degraded sensors preserves the vehicle’s ability to warn of low pad thickness, reducing the risk of disc damage and helping maintain braking consistency. Timely replacement supports scheduled maintenance and contributes to overall braking system reliability for Porsche models.
Advantages- Wide model coverage and OE cross-references to aid correct part selection.
- Designed to fit original mounting points and clearances for straightforward installation.
- Durable materials and connector designs intended to resist heat and contamination.
- Suitable for maintenance, restoration and routine brake servicing.
These items affect safety-critical systems. Installation should be carried out by a qualified technician following model-specific procedures and torque settings. Use calibrated tools and new fasteners where specified.
