I purchased new pads since I want to change my brakes.
One of the pads have a broken what looks to be the sensor's tab.
Haven't changed the brakes yet, so I would like to find out if that tab is important or not, send the set back or not.

Good sensor:

Thank you.

 

I would send it back. I think that tab holds the sensor in place.

 

Yeah it holds the connector in place, but it really shouldn't affect how it works. It just snaps into a bracket around the caliper and keeps it from spinning around.

 

Thanks guys. Actually I had the pads off when replacing the bearings, but didn't pay much attention to the wear sensors.
It sounds like I will send them back.
I appreciate your help.

 

It will not effect the way they work.
You will be fine.

 

Damn, I wanted to say "I won't send them back". I guess I got HX puzzled.
Thanks once more, guys! (you2, king)

 

You did, but now clear. Did you have your coffee this morning?

 

Yes, I did Actually I had two mugs with some Baileys in it - I was like a yo-yo all day.
Too bad it started raining and is cold now....freaking go figures; the whole last week the weather was perfect, and now when I got the parts I cannot work on the brakes
