E250 w212 14 plate
Hi All,

My rear pads on E250 are looking low (no indicator yet) I'm thinking of changing them myself. I've read they have a brake wear sensor fitted. Looking online it's a bit confusing some info says one sensor only on each axle other info says one on each wheel?
Anyway as the sensor hasn't activated yet can they be reused or do new ones need fitting?

Thanks

Hi I have a E250 and can confirm theres only one on each axle. I bought 2 sensors thinking the same thing.

On that note, i have been using 'cheap' ebay sensors for years and yet to have one not perform as required. at £1 a piece it is certainly better than £8/9 each from ECP etc.
