34 35 001 Replacing a brake pad wear sensor (front) (X6 2015-2019)

IMPORTANT: The brake pad wear sensor must be replaced once it has been removed (brake pad wear sensor loses its retention capability in the brake pad). 
If a brake pad wear sensor that has already been sanded has to be replaced even though the minimum brake pad thickness has not yet been reached, you must observe the following: The new sliding contact must be filed down with a file to the same length as the sanded sliding contact.

Necessary preliminary taste: 

Disengage cable guides (2).

Open lid (1) on connector housing.

Disconnect plug connection.

Disengage cable from cable guide (3).
