Bmw M760i Xdrive Brake Pad Wear Sensor Kit in US

A brake pad wear sensor kit for the Bmw M760i Xdrive does one critical thing that a pad change alone cannot: it ensures the brake warning light on your M760i Xdrive dashboard accurately reflects the condition of the next set of brake pads. Without a new sensor on the Bmw M760i Xdrive, the warning system is non-functional from day one of the new pads, there is no advance notice for the next replacement cycle on your M760i Xdrive. On Bmw M760i Xdrive vehicles where a previous service skipped the sensor, the brake warning light may also remain on permanently after new pads are installed on the M760i Xdrive.

What Is Included in the Bmw M760i Xdrive Brake Pad Wear Sensor Kit

The kit for your Bmw M760i Xdrive includes the brake pad wear sensor probe unit manufactured to OEM contact resistance and threshold depth for the M760i Xdrive monitoring circuit, the wiring connector mating with the Bmw M760i Xdrive brake monitoring harness where required, the retaining clip or mounting bracket securing the sensor to the M760i Xdrive brake pad or caliper correctly, and in pad-inclusive kits, the brake pads for the Bmw M760i Xdrive with sensor pre-assembled at factory-correct position on the M760i Xdrive pad.

Why the Sensor Probe Specification Matters on the Bmw M760i Xdrive

A brake pad wear sensor on the Bmw M760i Xdrive is a calibrated component manufactured to trigger the M760i Xdrive brake warning circuit at a specific remaining pad thickness. Too long and it triggers early on your Bmw M760i Xdrive, sending drivers for an unnecessary brake service with significant M760i Xdrive pad life remaining. Too short and it triggers late or not at all on the M760i Xdrive, leaving the driver with no advance warning as the Bmw M760i Xdrive pads approach the metal backing plate.

Signs the Wear Sensor Kit on Your Bmw M760i Xdrive Is Due

• Brake pad warning light illuminated on your Bmw M760i Xdrive dashboard
• M760i Xdrive warning light that stays on after a recent pad change, indicating sensor was not replaced on the Bmw M760i Xdrive
• Brake pads on your Bmw M760i Xdrive at or approaching minimum thickness on inspection
• Worn sensor probe visible on the M760i Xdrive brake pad during a brake service inspection

Why GeoBrakes for the Bmw M760i Xdrive Wear Sensor Kit

Wear sensor compatibility for the Bmw M760i Xdrive is more exacting than most brake components. Probe length, contact resistance specification, and connector pinout must all match the M760i Xdrive brake monitoring circuit exactly. A wrong-spec sensor on your Bmw M760i Xdrive either triggers warnings at the wrong pad thickness or fails to connect to the existing M760i Xdrive harness. Every kit in the GeoBrakes catalogue is sourced to OEM specification for the Bmw M760i Xdrive exact year and model, with front and rear positions listed separately.

Frequently Asked Questions - Bmw M760i Xdrive Brake Pad Wear Sensor Kits

How do I know if my Bmw M760i Xdrive has electronic brake pad wear sensors?

Check your Bmw M760i Xdrive owner's manual for a brake pad warning light in the instrument cluster section. Use the GeoBrakes vehicle selector to confirm whether your Bmw M760i Xdrive application requires an electronic sensor kit.

Can I buy the wear sensor separately from the brake pads for my Bmw M760i Xdrive?

Yes. GeoBrakes carries sensors as standalone components and as part of sensor kits for the Bmw M760i Xdrive. If replacing M760i Xdrive pads that did not include a sensor and the existing sensor has already triggered, a standalone sensor or sensor kit is the correct purchase for your Bmw M760i Xdrive.

Will the brake warning light turn off automatically after installing a new sensor on my Bmw M760i Xdrive?

On most Bmw M760i Xdrive vehicles, the brake pad warning light turns off once the new sensor is correctly installed and the ignition is cycled. On some Bmw M760i Xdrive European platforms, a diagnostic scan tool reset may be required. Check your M760i Xdrive service documentation if the light does not clear after installation.
