A disc brake pad wear sensor on the Lexus Ls500h is your vehicle's advance warning system for brake pad replacement. It eliminates the need to rely on audible squealing from your Ls500h to know your pads are getting thin, instead triggering a dashboard warning light at a preset minimum thickness on the Lexus Ls500h, giving you time to plan the replacement before the pads wear through to the metal backing plate. Replacing a triggered sensor with every Ls500h pad change is the only way to keep that early-warning system working for the next service interval.
The wear sensor on the Lexus Ls500h is a small probe embedded in or clipped to the brake pad. When the Ls500h pad wears down to the replacement threshold, the probe contacts the rotor surface. This contact creates a circuit change that signals the Lexus Ls500h ABS or brake control module, illuminating the brake warning light. Once the probe on the Lexus Ls500h has contacted the rotor, it is destroyed and cannot be reused. It is a single-use component by design on the Ls500h.
Installing fresh brake pads on the Lexus Ls500h without fitting a new wear sensor defeats the entire purpose of having a brake monitoring system on your Ls500h. A previously triggered sensor probe is worn through and has no remaining material to detect the next set of Ls500h pads wearing down. From day one of the new Lexus Ls500h brake pads, the warning system is non-functional without a new sensor.
Wear sensor compatibility for the Lexus Ls500h is more exacting than most brake parts. The probe length, contact resistance specification, and connector design must all match the Ls500h brake monitoring circuit precisely. A wrong sensor triggers Lexus Ls500h 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 Lexus Ls500h, with front and rear positions listed separately.
Do I need to replace the brake pad wear sensor every time I change pads on my Lexus Ls500h?
Yes, on Lexus Ls500h vehicles equipped with electronic wear sensors. The sensor probe on your Ls500h is a single-use component. Once it has contacted the rotor and triggered the Ls500h warning light, the probe is consumed. Always replace the Lexus Ls500h sensor during every pad change.
Does my Lexus Ls500h have electronic brake pad wear sensors?
Many vehicles use a mechanical wear indicator instead of electronic sensors. Check your Lexus Ls500h owner's manual or use the GeoBrakes vehicle selector to confirm whether your Ls500h uses an electronic pad monitoring system.
Can a faulty wear sensor keep the brake warning light on my Lexus Ls500h on after new pads are installed?
Yes. If the Lexus Ls500h wear sensor from a previous brake service was not replaced, or if the probe has been damaged on your Ls500h, the brake warning light will remain on even with new pads. Replacing the Ls500h sensor will clear the fault and restore normal operation.
