The EBC EFA196 Front Brake Wear Indicator Lead Sensor Kit is a genuine replacement component designed to monitor front brake pad wear on compatible Porsche Macan applications. The sensor lead works with the vehicle’s brake warning system to help alert the driver when the brake pads have reached a serviceable wear limit, supporting timely maintenance and dependable braking performance.
When the brake wear warning light illuminates on the instrument panel, the brake pads and wear sensor should be inspected. Replacing the worn indicator lead with the EBC EFA196 helps restore the monitoring function and provides a proper fit for the specified braking system. This kit is designed for use with FMSI pad number D1663 and is intended for front, vented brake applications with five-bolt rotors.
The EBC EFA196 fits select 2017–2021 and 2023 Porsche Macan models. It is a practical replacement for a worn or activated brake wear lead during routine brake service, helping maintain clear communication between the brake system and the vehicle’s warning electronics. Verify vehicle year, brake configuration, and pad application before installation to ensure compatibility.
