Volkswagen Golf - Video tutorial

Model: Volkswagen Golf Golf 5, MK 5, Golf V - Years 2003-2008
Part: Brake pads
Operation: Wear sensor operating instructions

To understand the operating principle of the brake wear sensor, the video first of all shows how, by disconnecting the sensor socket and then opening the circuit, the relative yellow light on the instrument panel turns on (central circle with side dashes); this is exactly what happens when the pads wear out and the sensor integrated inside it comes into contact with the disc, generating the opening of the circuit; to better understand everything, a connector was recovered from an old tablet, connected to the car wiring socket, then applying two wires to the connector itself, long enough to reach the passenger compartment: it is shown how by connecting the two ends of the wires and then when the circuit is closed, the warning light goes out.
