Jaguar F Pace Brake Pad Wear Sensor in US

A disc brake pad wear sensor on the Jaguar F Pace is your vehicle's advance warning system for brake pad replacement. It eliminates the need to rely on audible squealing from your F Pace to know your pads are getting thin, instead triggering a dashboard warning light at a preset minimum thickness on the Jaguar F Pace, giving you time to plan the replacement before the pads wear through to the metal backing plate. Replacing a triggered sensor with every F Pace pad change is the only way to keep that early-warning system working for the next service interval.

How the Brake Pad Wear Sensor Works on the Jaguar F Pace

The wear sensor on the Jaguar F Pace is a small probe embedded in or clipped to the brake pad. When the F Pace pad wears down to the replacement threshold, the probe contacts the rotor surface. This contact creates a circuit change that signals the Jaguar F Pace ABS or brake control module, illuminating the brake warning light. Once the probe on the Jaguar F Pace has contacted the rotor, it is destroyed and cannot be reused. It is a single-use component by design on the F Pace.

Why Replace the Wear Sensor at Every Jaguar F Pace Pad Change

Installing fresh brake pads on the Jaguar F Pace without fitting a new wear sensor defeats the entire purpose of having a brake monitoring system on your F Pace. A previously triggered sensor probe is worn through and has no remaining material to detect the next set of F Pace pads wearing down. From day one of the new Jaguar F Pace brake pads, the warning system is non-functional without a new sensor.

Signs the Wear Sensor on Your Jaguar F Pace Needs Replacing

• Brake warning light staying on your Jaguar F Pace after new pads have been fitted
• Intermittent brake warning light on your F Pace that clears and returns without obvious cause
• Visible wear notch or contact mark on the Jaguar F Pace sensor probe tip
• OBD fault codes on your F Pace referencing the brake pad monitoring circuit

Why GeoBrakes for the Jaguar F Pace Brake Pad Wear Sensor

Wear sensor compatibility for the Jaguar F Pace is more exacting than most brake parts. The probe length, contact resistance specification, and connector design must all match the F Pace brake monitoring circuit precisely. A wrong sensor triggers Jaguar F Pace warnings at the wrong pad thickness, or not at all. Every sensor in the GeoBrakes catalogue is sourced to original equipment probe and connector specifications for the Jaguar F Pace, with front and rear positions listed separately.

Frequently Asked Questions - Jaguar F Pace Brake Pad Wear Sensor

Do I need to replace the brake pad wear sensor every time I change pads on my Jaguar F Pace?

Yes, on Jaguar F Pace vehicles equipped with electronic wear sensors. The sensor probe on your F Pace is a single-use component. Once it has contacted the rotor and triggered the F Pace warning light, the probe is consumed. Always replace the Jaguar F Pace sensor during every pad change.

Does my Jaguar F Pace have electronic brake pad wear sensors?

Many vehicles use a mechanical wear indicator instead of electronic sensors. Check your Jaguar F Pace owner's manual or use the GeoBrakes vehicle selector to confirm whether your F Pace uses an electronic pad monitoring system.

Can a faulty wear sensor keep the brake warning light on my Jaguar F Pace on after new pads are installed?

Yes. If the Jaguar F Pace wear sensor from a previous brake service was not replaced, or if the probe has been damaged on your F Pace, the brake warning light will remain on even with new pads. Replacing the F Pace sensor will clear the fault and restore normal operation.
